Baseball in South Wales and Liverpool

you mention 4/5 teams from Newport for seniors

The only teams I can remember playing against were St Michaels , Alexander Old Boys and Ebbw Bridge . Did Pill Harriers have a side too back in the day ?

Pill Harriers did as did Hartridge and Civil Service out of Bettws.
I think even The Sarries did.
If they were of a Standard to play against the Cardiff teams...I'm not sure.

yes when i saw your post regarding civil service you are correct it jogged my memory i remember i played a night game up the civil service ground and didn;t finish for bad light as were still playing at 10 in the night -lol

Yes the WBU held representative games and 1 year got selected to play for a good solid cardiff side against Newport but you townies hammered us by an innings

got selected a for a welsh trial but didn't get in as there were some very good players back then . my lad went on to represent the wales youth side a few years later

great times when i look back
