Softball in the Australian Capital Territory : ウィキペディア英語版 | Softball in the Australian Capital Territory
Softball is played in the Australian Capital Territory. The game was influenced early in its history in the territory by Queanbeyan. There are efforts to increase participation in the sport in the ACT. The territory has won the Gilleys Shield three times in a row. Players from Canberra have been on the national team, held Australian Institute of Sport scholarships and played for American universities. ==History and governance==
Softball saw a "benefit" in the bombing of Darwin and the inclusion of Australia in World War II in terms of bringing in American military personnel who brought softball with them to this territory. Softball was being played in the Australian Capital Territory by the mid-1950s with the sport being heavily influenced by the community in Queanbeyan and elsewhere in New South Wales. When efforts began to try to create a territory-based organisation in the mid-1950s, they initially tried to have Queanbeyan included inside the ACT as the two are very close geographically, with teams from the area competing against each other. In 1960, the national association investigated whether or not a territory based association could be accepted into the national organisation based on the constitution. They sent the question to the organisation's lawyers to attempt to resolve the query. The following year, women from the ACT were informally admitted while they awaited a legal answer.〔 In 1961, the Australian Capital Territory state softball federation aligned itself with the Australian Women's Softball Council. In 1971, there were 27 teams affiliated with the territory organisation, 169 in 1975, 175 in 1976, 208 in 1977, 267 in 1978, 350 in 1983 and 338 in 1984.
