Weary legs, weary arms and weary heads, BatPak battled through games on Saturday and Sunday to retain the Brian Walshe Cup trophy for the third year in a row, and fourth time in five years!!

The New York Yankees, Arsenal FC, even Inverness Caledonian Thistle. BatPak can today announce that it is joining this stellar group of teams and clubs that have moved their home ground.

Softball Ireland have announced the schedule for the Second Round of the Brian Walshe Cup, with BatPak's reward for defeating Marlay Mayhem in the First Round with a home tie against another Marlay team, the Mavericks.

Holders Ease Comfortably Through BWC First Round

A new softball season, but not much changed on Tuesday night in St. Anne's Park. The ever decreasing space in the park meant the two teams' warm-up was surrounded by under-7's hurling, over 25's (physical age, mental much less) GAA and the usual soccer training group acting tough by setting up camp in the outfield only to be convinced by a two or three fly balls whizzing past their ears to move.
