Scheduled for April 3, 2 teams from 38 participating teams to the dream stage
The All Japan Women’s Baseball Federation and the National High School Women’s Baseball Federation announced on the 4th that they will hold the final match of the 23rd National High School Women’s Baseball “Selection Tournament” to be held this spring at Tokyo Dome. Scheduled for April 3rd.
The tournament will start on March 26 with 36 teams from the women’s baseball club, which is the largest number ever from all over Japan, and 2 teams from the Union, and will be held in Kazo City, Saitama Prefecture from the first round to the semi-finals at Tokyo Dome. Only the final match will be held. It seems that attention will be focused on where the two teams that can advance to the dream stage will be.
The special sponsorship of the tournament includes the giants of professional baseball who launched the women’s team this spring. Kazutomo Miyamoto, a women’s baseball adviser with the president of the baseball team, said, “I am excited that the final match of the women’s selection tournament will be held at Tokyo Dome for the first time in the history of the tournament. I feel that it is getting more and more exciting. Under such circumstances, the “Spring Tokyo Dome” following “Summer Koshien” has been realized, and the dreams of female players have increased by one, even from the standpoint of supporting women’s baseball. I’m happy. “
On August 23, last year, the final of the Summer Women’s High School Baseball Championship was held at Koshien Stadium. If Koshien is held for the summer championship and Tokyo Dome is held for the spring selection, it seems that the world of women’s baseball will become more known.
