The Participation Subcommittee has been established by the Board of Management of Baseball Queensland to identify avenues to increase participation in Baseball and/or Baseball-related activities by athletes of all ages within the state of Queensland.

We are seeking additional members to join the Participation Subcommittee. Members should have networks within the wider baseball community that are important for the development of the sport (grassroots development and innovations such as Baseball5); experience in sports scheduling; experience in baseball coaching, umpiring, scoring or in Club administration; an understanding of how Clubs operate within the state of Queensland; and an understanding of the issues relating to the connections between Clubs and their Regions. The Subcommittee is also seeking individuals with expertise and an interest in providing support to the committee through communication and project management. The time commitment for members is approximately 3-4 hours per month, but can vary throughout the year.

Selection of members will be guided by these criteria and with consideration for existing expertise within the Committee to ensure diverse and complementary skills, experience and backgrounds necessary for the Participation Subcommittee to collectively undertake its responsibilities.

Expressions of interest addressing the criteria are to be submitted in writing no later than close of business on 16 April 2021. Please email the expression of interest to Andrea Marshall, Secretary, BQ Participation Committee (a.marshall@baseballqld.asn.au). Additional information can be obtained from the Secretary or Chair, David Badke (d.badke@baseballqld.asn.au).
