So I know of Football/Soccer and Rugby teams...are there any baseball or softball leagues in Seoul? Please point me in the right direction. Thanks!

There are a few Korean ones...but having looked into this myself, there is one HUGE problem with baseball/softball in Korea: lack of places to play.

There really aren't enough places to play, so there aren't a lot of teams out there.

if anyone does know of any please let me (and the rest) know.
my international softball/fastpitch commish. didn't know of any in s.k. but referred me to japan if i did want to play.

i'm used to pretty high competition but would take anything at this point. i'm a pretty good pitcher and hitter if anyone reading this does know of a team. hell, i'd even play with the women's team if they are anywhere around seoul. i might bring my glove and spikes just in case.

I use to play competitively in highschol and a bit in college. I live in Seoul. Does anyone know of any women's softball league?

heya,

Softball is really hard to find in Seoul. But if you're interested at all in baseball, you're welcome to come check out one of my teams.

I'm also thinking about starting an ex-pat softball league, just beer league type stuff. perhaps the Seoulites vs. Jibang (suburb) Crew? Just a thought.

We are trying to set up a softball league in Seoul, if interested please sign up with the Seoul Softball League group on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/group.php?gid=71784330879

We are planning to meet Saturdays from 2pm (starting this coming Saturday) by the Han river, near Ichon station.

Hey Hanna,
I tried emailing you through gmail but I don't know if you got it. I would be interested in checking out your women's competitive team. Could you please let me know what is the next time you are playing. Thanks!

Ive posted a few times, but I play on a men's team that plays almost every weekend in Gwacheon (near Sadang). It's mostly a teams of friends, but this year we had to get a few new players. We're not really looking for new players, because we have enough (unless u r really good and pitch or catch).

We are always looking for other teams to play agaisnt and we are willing to travel. So if anyone would like to play us please respond.

hey supernaut,

do you guys play in a league?
my men's team is always looking for a friendly scrimmage as long as there's a field to play on Smile

let me know if you're down! it'd be fun to set something up.
