We had a chat with Jay Myers before he flies to Hong Kong this week for the WBSC Baseball5 Senior World Cup starting next Monday (7th October).
Jay makes history as the first Queenslander in the first ever senior B5 Australian Team. Jay is also a catcher for the Brisbane Bandits, and off the field, he is a PE teacher at Runcorn State High School, a Baseball Excellence school in Brisbane. In our chat, Jay shares his excitement for Baseball5 and what it means to represent both Queensland and Australia.

This is Australia’s first senior team, following the squad who competed in the Youth World Cup in 2023.
