Kia ora ECB whanau,  

A huge thank you to everyone who submitted a Club Award nomination! With an incredible 201 Junior Nominations and 152 Senior Nominations, this marks the largest response ever! Our Club Captains, Club President, and Head Scorer dedicated two evenings to carefully reviewing every single nomination. The winners will be announced at the upcoming Prizegivings — stay tuned for the exciting reveal! Your participation has made this process truly remarkable!

We are looking forward to celebrating with you all this weekend for our Junior Prizegiving. 

JUNIOR PRIZEGIVING - SUN 06 APRIL 2025

Junior Prizegiving is when we celebrate ALL our  junior grades from our Under 5 Taniwha through to our U15/17 Girls and U17/19 Boys.  

WHEN: Sunday 06 April 2025 - Start 1pm 
WHERE: Rosedale Park - Stadium Seating (by Freeman Field D1)

Please arrive by 12.45pm to be seated with your teams. 
We will have pizza and Mr Whippy at the conclusion of the prizegiving for players and team management.   

The full junior prizegiving programme can be seen below. 

Easter is just around the corner, and Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) needs our help to bring joy to families caring for sick loved ones.

How can you make an impact? Donate an Easter egg! Your simple gesture can spread Easter cheer to those who need it most.

Easter Egg donations will be collected at our ECB Softball Junior Prizegiving and personally delivered to RMH before Easter by our own Kylie Sims.

Let’s unite and brighten this Easter for these families!
