A delegation from the International Softball Federation (ISF) arrived in Abuja, Nigeria Monday to make a presentation to the Association of National Olympic Committees of Africa (ANOCA) General Assembly, promoting softball’s campaign for Olympic Program reinstatement.
ISF President Don Porter, who is leading the delegation and is involved in the presentation said, “I am delighted to be back in Africa again this week to discuss with members of ANOCA why softball should get their backing in the lead-up to the IOC vote later this year. We have invested heavily in projects around Africa, providing real hope and opportunity to young people. We are committed to making softball a significant sport in Africa as evidenced by our Jr. Women’s World Championship being set for 2011 in Cape Town (South Africa)”.
