SMU Softball
ABOUT US
Softball is more than just about hitting and running. Contrary to popular belief, softball is won by the team with a better strategy than with a team filled with better players. Finesse and precision are of utmost importance.
Softball was created in SMU for the sole purpose of introducing a new sport to the student body. While the sport was not very well known in the past, it has been growing in popularity over the years.
KEY EVENTS
Aside from trainings, members are able to participate in events organised by our EXCO. In 2022, we have organized events such as exchanges with other clubs, carnivals, video competitions and yearly corporate/alumni networking sessions.

Our regular training is conducted by our coach, Mr. Nevan Mok. During some training where the team is split into smaller groups, senior players will be assisting during the sessions.
The team has gone to Malaysia before for overseas friendly games. The available tournaments around the region and our school calendar do not permit us to compete in them. We are always communicating with external organizers for any available overseas tournaments.
The basic equipment to play the sport is provided by the club. These equipment includes gloves, bats, helmets, bases, balls, bases and competition jerseys.
Competitions are not limited to certain players. All existing and new players are encouraged to participate in competitions. However, due to the limitation in the maximum players allowed in a game, the captain and coach will decide the player line-up based on attendance and ability. However, worry not as SMU Softball participates in many competitions every year so there are plenty of chances.
