The New Zealand junior men’s softball team will be hitting the diamonds in Brandon.
An exhibition game against the La Salle Comets has been set up for June 20th at Simplot Millennium Park.
Organizer Bruce Luebke says it was a perfect fit as the team travels between Portage la Prairie and Fleming Saskatchewan.
"Well you’re going to be passing through Brandon, would you be willing to stop and playing a game? Worked through the details making sure everything was good for team New Zealand and finding and opponent."
Luebke adds, "it helps to grow and promote the sport in the community. Showcase the sport at the highest level."
There will be a gate fee of $5 to attend.
