Welcome to the opening day of the Men’s Softball World Cup at Rosedale Park in North Harbour, New Zealand. The weather looks very promising after a fair bit of rain over the past few days. Today has dawned cloudy, but dry with no wind and it’s meant to stay that way.
Looking forward to the opening ceremony at midday, followed by the first of 50 games featuring hosts and seven-time champions New Zealand against the Czech Republic.
