RICH HISTORY
Bothasig Baseball Club has a fantastic clubhouse, tuckshop, coffee bar and a licensed bar area.
Junior and Senior Committees are selected annually at our official AGM, where audited financial reports of the past season are tabled and approved.
Both Junior and Senior Committees jointly manage the clubs coaching, social and fundraising commitments. We have recently started our upliftment programme for underprivileged players.
The clubs successes over the years can truly be attributed to our parents & community members involvement as committee members, coaches, managers, scorers. Further to this, our fundraising events are well supported annually. Our club has a very proud history of baseball in South Africa, with many of our players representing the Western Province and South Africa at International level.
We are an affiliate to our National Body, being the South African Baseball Union (SABU), who governs and administers Baseball in South Africa. SABU is responsible for the development and advancement of baseball, furthermore co-ordinating

DYLAN UNSWORTH
The 29-year old right-hander from South Africa shared with the WBSC his experiences in the US minor leagues and the professional leagues of Venezuela, Mexico, Taiwan and Australia.
He started his journey as a 15-year old at the MLB Academy in Italy.
Having thrown a no-hitter in the Mexican League, become the first pro player from the Bothasig Baseball Club in Cape Town, made his National Team debut at 16 and played in Africa, Europe, Americas, Asia, Oceania, it's fair to say 29-year-old Dylan Unsworth has been a pioneer for South African baseball.
Unsworth, who starred for South Africa at the WBSC Europe/Africa Olympic qualifier for Tokyo 2020 in Italy in 2019, is passionate about the game and the life it has provided him during what he calls an "amazing journey," including his current experience of playing for El Águila de Veracruz in the Mexican League.
"Baseball turned me into the man I am today," Unsworth told the WBSC. "The whole Unsworth family is very good at softball. My dad was a pitcher, and he introduced me to the game in Cape Town where I played for the Bothasig Baseball Club. I had played soccer, cricket rugby as a young kid, but I chose baseball."
