The Summer Slam – Fully Loaded Softball is a world-first innovative fast paced competition that will define a new era for the sport of softball. To be held at the Blacktown International Sportspark in Sydney from 4 – 6 February 2019, and to be broadcast live in primetime by Fox Sports, The Summer Slam – Fully Loaded Softball will offer shorter games, more action, less downtime and more runs scored. The high performance event, for open women’s players, will feature six franchised teams made up of Australia’s elite women’s softball representatives who will be joined by international players from several of the world’s top 12 ranked teams. New rules, which have been tested and trialled, will be introduced for the tournament with the entire format of the new game designed to put more pressure on players to perform right from the very first pitch.
 “The Summer Slam – Fully Loaded Softball will reshape the landscape of the game in Australia and provide an edge of your seat experience for spectators and fans as well as a high-pressure environment for our talented players,” David Pryles, Softball Australia CEO said. “Held in the world class 2000 Olympic Softball venue, Blacktown International Sportspark, The Summer Slam – Fully Loaded Softball will draw new audiences to the sport, and fuel the passion that many past and present players have for this great game,” Pryles continued. Travelodge Aussie Spirit Captain, Stacey Porter believes The Summer Slam – Fully Loaded Softball will not only improve elite playing opportunities for Australia’s top softball athletes but also further grow the game of Softball at grassroots level in this country. “I am extremely excited about the concept behind The Summer Slam – Fully Loaded Softball and can’t wait to get out there on the diamond and compete in such a high-pressure, but fun environment alongside not only my fellow Travelodge Aussie Spirit team mates but also some of the superstars of softball around the world,” Porter said.
