Congratulations to our Roosters Men who have been selected in the wider squad for the U23 Major Sox. Awesome news.
Head Coach Steven Deans, alongside newly appointed Assistant Coach Craig Wallace, have named a 40-man training squad in preparation for the WBSC U-23 Men's World Cup in 2026 🥎.
Head Coach Deans is excited with the talent that the new crop of Under 23's have to offer. With a new cycle starting, the management team are looking forward to developing the team to be contenders for the next World Cup.

It gives the U23’s Major Sox real opportunities to compete against the worlds best players in their own age group. The exposure to international softball is invaluable and helps bridge the gap to the Black Sox squad. We have a number of options available for the team over the next 2 years and we are working closely with Softball NZ to identify the best direction to maximum the groups development" said Deans.
Trainings will kick off in the Hutt Valley over Labour Weekend (October) where the training squad will spend time setting goals for the group and begin team bonding while getting to know each other.
