Grand Final on Fox Sports

In a first for softball, the grand final of the 2014 National Championship between the NSW Firestars and Queensland Heat will be shown on Fox Sports in January. The coverage features a 90-minute highlights package on January 23 at 3pm on Fox Sports 1, followed by a further showing on January 25 at 3pm on Fox Sports 1, and again on January 29 at 2.30pm on Fox Sports 2 (check Fox Sports schedule for any changes to timeslots). Hopefully it is the start of bigger things to come.” The grand final will feature a number of Australia’s leading players, including national captain, Stacey Porter, who also leads the NSW Firestars, while her vice-captain, Jodie Bowering, will feature heavily for the Queensland Heat as the team’s captain and catcher.
