Rising Baseball Star Mikael Garner to step onto the International Stage

Rising Baseball Star Mikael Garner to step onto the International Stage

Mikael Garner has set off on an exciting journey to Los Angeles

Mikael Garner, a year 10 student, has set off on an exciting journey to Los Angeles as a player for the Pac-Man baseball team competing in the 14U International World Series. This opportunity follows Mikael's outstanding performance for the King's during the Mid-Summer Blast National tournament, where, despite being only 14 years old, he competed in the 16U division and his team secured 1st place. 

Mikael's selection for the Pac-Man team was the result of his outstanding performance at a national tournament held in January, leading to him earning the chance to represent both his community and school on an international level. 

As Mikael prepares to take on opponents such as the SoCal Venom, Matadors, and Ontario Naturals, the excitement for high-quality baseball matches is evident. With baseball being America's favourite pastime, spectators can anticipate competitive games throughout the series. 

As he steps onto the international stage, we would like to wish him all the best.
