Softball Victoria Merle Short Service Award

Merle Short was a long serving representative of Softball Victoria beginning in the early 1950’s when she served the Association in multiple administrative roles. The Merle Short Service Award was subsequently named in her honour in 1993 and is presented each year to softball volunteers who have demonstrated outstanding service within the softball community. Regardless of whether that service is on the diamond, coaching or umpiring, or off the diamond in administration roles, more than 100 volunteers have been recognised with the Merle Short Service award, honouring both the recipient and the award namesake.

On behalf of the wider softball community, we congratulate the following Casey Softball Association members on being recognised for their valued contribution to our sport:
