I just happened to come across an article published yesterday on the BBC website about Great Britain’s withdrawal from the Olympic qualifier in Taiwan. The tournament starts tomorrow and it’s sad to think that Team GB had earned the right to be there, only for this opportunity to be taken away due to lack of funding. There’s not a great deal of optimism in the article, although it does note that our silver medal at the 2007 European Baseball Championship means we qualify for the 2009 World Championship (funded by the IBAF).
