A local baseball player is hoping for support to make her way to the World Cup of Baseball.
Chelsea Bradley is a member of the Women’s Baseball Team Alberta and is aspiring to play for Team Canada.
The National Women’s Baseball program competes in a World Cup every two years and 2015 was the first time Women’s Baseball was in the Pan American games.
A lifelong athlete, in 2013, Bradley discovered her true passion; Baseball. Finding Women’s baseball at a later age, the opportunities and exposure to the National Team is rare, but on November 6, she attended her first prospects camp in Saskatoon. From this, she was invited to a weeklong training/prospects camp in Cuba.
“This is amazing because the camp is usually for U18 players only,” she said. “Attending this camp would drastically improve my chances of showing off my hard work, skills, and passion and being selected to play for Team Canada.
To make this happen she needed to raise $2,000 and needs it right away. In fact, payment is needed by December 4.
“That type of money is something I don’t have at the moment, “ she said. “I would be eternally grateful for any contributions, donations or sponsorship opportunities that you or your company is capable of sharing.”
She has set up a Go Fund Me site to hopefully raise the funds need to make her way to prospect camp. Go to https://www.gofundme.com/ze9c7nfg :
