Runcorn State High School has partnered with Baseball QLD to deliver Baseball as a specialist sport within the school from 2019. As a result we are seeking a Health & Physical Education Teacher, with a passion for Baseball to undertake a temporary full time contract from Term 4 2018 until Term 4 2019, with the possibility of extension.
In 2019, Runcorn SHS will commence a Baseball Academy and the successful candidate will be developing and driving this Academy from the start. The program will utilise Indians Baseball Club for the workout sessions, but there will also be curriculum attached to the program. This program will be based off the successful Robina SHS program, however adapted to Runcorn’s demographic. We are also looking to integrate an International Student Program with this program, linking Baseball players from Japan with an opportunity to play Baseball at High School in Australia.
If you would like any further information, please contact Jo Soothill (Principal – Runcorn SHS).
This is exciting for our sport in Queensland as our Queensland Schools Baseball committee look to increase the number of schools and students playing Baseball.

I would personally like to announce that Far North Coast Baseball Association will be moving forward as part of Baseball New South Wales.
Baseball Queensland and Far North Coast Baseball Association have had a long and rich partnership history in the growth and development of both young men and women within the sport. Over four decades, the partnership has developed both past and present hero’s who have graced the stages of diamonds across the globe. I am excited for the continued success and development that this shift will bring to Far North Coast Baseball Association. Baseball Queensland has always been about building a better future for baseball and this is still very much at the forefront of our mission. The opportunity to leverage from the re-development of Albert Park and the continued facility development will provide great opportunities for the region, clubs and Far North Coast Baseball Association to progress with athlete development as well as bettering the sport for Australia. On behalf of Baseball Queensland, the Board of Management, the Regions, Clubs and all of our members you will be missed from our family association but will never be forgotten in the spirit of the game.

CEO
