You are cordially invited to watch history as the first professional softball team to ever visit the UK takes on the Great Britain Women's National Team!

On 6-7 July, the Great Britain Women's Senior National Fastpitch Team will host Women's Professional Fastpitch's Oklahoma City Spark for a two-game exhibition series at the National Baseball & Softball Complex at Farnham Park in Buckinghamshire - the Royal Spark Challenge. The Challenge will be part of Great Britain's preparations for the Softball World Cup the following week in Ireland.

First pitch for both games will be at 6:30 PM and the games are completely free to attend - that's right, no charge to watch some of the best softballers in the world play in the UK! During the game, there will be music and entertainment, with the players signing autographs after the final out - the only opportunities to meet both the Spark and this year's World Cup squad! 

Home Plate Bar + Kitchen will be open with delicious food and refreshing beverages on both nights, and there is plenty of parking on-site. GB Softball and Royal Spark Challenge merchandise will be available as well - perfect for the postgame autograph session. Bring a picnic blanket or your own chairs, or arrive early to reserve a bleacher seat to get the best view.

While not a requirement, we do ask that you RSVP at the respective links below. We can't wait to see you at the Royal Spark Challenge!
