The History of North West Baseball Inc.
After winning the club championship , B Grade and C Grade in the Tamworth Baseball competition , and talk of going to Sunday baseball the Gunnedah Baseball club decided to try and run its own Comp. With 3 players from Narrabri playing with Gunnedah in the Tamworth Comp it was decided to add teams from Narrabri as well . So with 2 sides from Gunnedah and the re-birth of 2 sides from Narrabri North West Baseball was born .Narrabri hadnt seen baseball in 9 or 10 years so it was all set for a small but great season . A special thanks must go to Ian Lewis (President of NSW Country at the time) for assisting us in becoming affiliated with Country NSW in 1997. His attitude was great to see them let such a little association as North West join all the bigger associations and have our say and play in the country championships. Warren Williams who took time out to attend our presentation night and take an interest in one of their little affilates .Our members appreciated his efforts Paul Farthers Country Baseball Development Officer who worked so hard with our schools in the region with the assistance of Gary Everson from Baseball NSW. All the kids that took part had a great time and the schools are still running hit pitch run in their programs. And last and by no way least Chris White the admin officer of NSW Country who has helped us so often and without a complaint , we thank you Chris very much .
