The SURREY 2016 Organizing Committee is proud to welcome the world's best fastpitch athletes, representing upwards of 30 nations, to Surrey, BC, Canada for the WBSC XV Women's World Softball Championship.
For many athletes, the 2016 WBSC XV Women’s World Softball Championship will be their first, and perhaps only, major international competition. For others, the best-of-the-best will challenge each other to perform at the highest level of competition to win gold for their nation. For every team, it will be the opportunity to play for their country. For every athlete, it is a time to compete in the honour and glory of their sport, to march under their national flags in front of huge crowds. Like all World Championships before or after, borders will not contain the magic of sport. Friendships and memories will be made.
SURREY 2016 is committed to producing a World Championship experience that is unparalleled for athletes, sport officials, and fans. We would like to extend our most sincere thanks to those many supporters who have chosen to embrace this opportunity. The myriad of cultures, micro-cultures, languages, and peoples that make Surrey the great city it is have come together to support us thus far. For us, Surrey 2016 is not about the few, but about the many. From whatever continent you will come from we are ready to welcome you to Canada, a country with a generous heart where you will be among good friends.
To inspire youth, celebrate our community, and promote engagement in sport, on and off the field.
To host the greatest World Championship ever, where the unifying power of sport will bring our community together and inspire athletes from around the world to reach farther, push harder, and seek excellence.
