Men's National Championship Records MEN'S NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP RECORDS 1939 — 2015 FIFTH EDITION — 2015 INTRODUCTION The following pages contain, as far as I can ascertain, the winners and runners-up of all Men's and Boys' New Zealand domestic competitions since the inception of our sport up until the completion of the most recent season. At this time I have not been able to document all runners-up prior to 1958, but hopefully some of that information will become available in due course. Remember, too, that between 1945 and 1949 the Beatty Cup was decided on a challenge basis. Earlier listings of the various championship winners have generally been assembled under a trophy banner, ie winners of the Beatty Cup or the Bensel Cup. While that method served the purpose admirably at the time, changes — notably sponsorship and different tournament formats — make that approach, in my opinion, more cumbersome. Many trophies were re-allocated and sometimes superceded, and on occasions reappeared in a different role, which sometimes made it difficult to follow just what competition/format they were being awarded to. I have therefore opted to list competitions continuously from the beginning until, in some cases, they were eventually discontinued altogether and note, as best I can, the various stages trophies were awarded or discarded. With most age-group categories I have added explanatory notes, which hopefully make clearer the evolution of the various grades. These days our "official records" largely ignore the days before Under-19, Under-17 and Under-15 grades, but I think it is important to ensure the records are maintained as accurately as possible right from the beginning of those grades which played such a huge part in building our sport in the '60s. For this updated Second and subsequent editions of the records I have added all relevant individual batting records covering all grades from the time I have been able to establish they were first awarded. In some cases awards initially carried tournament sponsors' names, but with lack of clarity around later award names I have opted, in most cases, to not record the trophy name. Batting records follow on immediately after their relevant tournament category. Also, on the last page, I have included records of the New Zealand Players of the Year from their inception as the Bank of New South Wales awards in the 1968-69 season. Unfortunately tracing the winners has not been as clearcut as it probably should have been because of the haphazard way of recording resuts in annual reports when awards were often not able to be published prior to their presentation and subsequent listings recorded the wrong year. Consequently we cannot establish, with certainty, the 1982-83 and 1983-84 winners when John Vaughan & Co had the naming rights. Their involvement with the "Player of the Year" awards should not be confused with their sponsorship of "Player of the Tournament" awards in the same years. Any information welcome. While I've tried to ensure the accuracy of these records by double checking wherever there was a doubt, I'll be surprised if there is not a slip-up somewhere. In a few places listings vary from previously published records and where I have come across a conflict I have referred to NZSA annual reports, old programmes or newspaper reports and even my own favourite publication, "Softball Scene". However, I am keen to receive feedback from anyone who can enhance the accuracy of this material. In the interests of brevity I have opted to assemble men's and women's records in separate documents, both of which I have forwarded to you. I have also chosen to colour code the two genders to save any confusion and accordingly RED denotes Women's and Girls' grades, while GREEN identifies Men's and Boys' grades. Note that the identifying colour also denotes the beginning of a new grade, while the colour Black marks a change in name/classification/age within that section. Example UNDER 19 BOYS and SENIOR SCHOOLBOYS.

  • White Sox Honour Lara Andrews and Mel Gettins
    WHITE SOX HONOUR LARA ANDREWS AND MEL GETTINS The New Zealand White Sox have paid tributes to two stalwart players who have reached major milestones at the 2018 world championships in Japan. Infielder Lara Andrews (Hutt Valley) and catcher Mel Gettins (Hawke's Bay) were honoured at a team dinner in Chiba on Wednesday night after notching up their 50th games for the White Sox at the tournament. Lara, 29, made her 50th appearance against the Netherlands in Game Two last Saturday. She has since extended her tally to 55, making her 11th equal on the list of most capped White Sox players. Mel, also 29, brought up her 50th test cap when she came in as a pinch hitter in Tuesday's game against Mexico. They have become the 19th and 20th players, respectively, to register 50 or more White Sox test appearances against full international teams. White Sox manager Lyn Lockhart says it is fitting that "Lara and Mel have achieved this honour together'' at their fifth world championships. Mel and Lara both made their White Sox debuts in 2009 after graduating from the Junior White Sox team that played in the 2007 under-19 world championships in Enschede, Holland. Lyn says both players are important members of the White Sox senior leadership group and "live and breathe softball''. "Lara has been playing for a long period of time for New Zealand and had more than four years overseas, at college and then as the first New Zealander to play in the Pro League. "She's a massive contributor to this team.
