After much deliberation, the Exeter Spitfires have decided to rejoin the BBF and compete within SWWBL in the 2025 season.
This decision has not been made or affected in any way due to personal matters, as our relationships within the WBL were always excellent and is something

we highly value. However, with our baseball club on the verge of potential exponential growth, we feel this would be better supported within the structure and guidance of the NGB.
We leave the WBL with a heavy heart and wish to retain the good relationships we have forged

in our time there.
We are also incredibly excited about making new friendships across the wider baseball community and receiving the support we need to grow our club into something glorious and spreading the word further about baseball in Exeter and the surrounding areas

Hi @TylerKepner 200 years after his birth in Exeter, we are cutting the turf on brand new diamond to be named after Henry Chadwick. Less than a mile away from the church in which he was baptised, would you like to help us publicise it?

An initiative to get more women and girls playing baseball has been declared a huge success with more than 150 people turning up for an open day in Exeter.
@ExeterSpitfires said they were thrilled with the response to the event.

We would love to meet anyone who went to the @MLB London Series and wanted to come and learn more about the sport! We are playing at home next Sunday at KGV in #exeter

If you love baseball, want to get involved and have been inspired by the #LondonSeries, clubs across are always looking scorers and umpires - find a club
