League meetings and presidents’ meeting in the House of Sports
This year’s league meetings and the presidents’ meeting of the Swiss Baseball and Softball Federation will take place on November 23rd in the House of Sports in Ittigen near Bern.
The SBSF has also announced that both President Dagmar Voith Leemann and Christof Rissi, the person responsible for grassroots sport, will resign at the general assembly on February 22nd, 2025. The search for successors is underway.
Start of indoor practices
After the fall break, indoor practices will begin for the Challengers teams and thus preparations for the 2025 season. The gyms remain unchanged from last year, with pitcher/catcher practice in the Ruggächer sports hall in Zurich-Affoltern, baseball practice in the Probstei gym in Zurich-Schwamendingen, softball practice in the Gabler gym in Zurich-Enge and junior practices in the Auhof and Herzogenmühle gyms in Zurich-Schwamendingen.

All generations of Challengers met on Wednesday night for the traditional veteran’s game. The event also marked the end of the season for the Challengers in the Heerenschürli baseball stadium, after the three men’s teams also played their last championship games of the season last weekend.
The juniors will once again have an extensive indoor season with various tournaments throughout German-speaking Switzerland, while the seniors will continue in April next year with the start of the next baseball and softball season. Meanwhile, the construction machines have already arrived at the Heerenschürli to install the new 26-meter-high back stop during the off-season. If the weather plays along, the construction works should be completed in time for the start of the season in March 2025.
A conciliatory end to the season for the 1st League Team
The Challengers’ third team played the placement games with the three fourth-placed teams in the preliminary round groups for places ten to twelve on Sunday. The Zurich team faced the Geneva Tigers and the hosts Bern Cardinals. The game against the western Swiss team was lost 10-13 due to one bad inning, but the Zurich team narrowly won against the Bern Cardinals 11-10.
The Challengers got off to an excellent start against the Geneva Tigers. They quickly loaded the bases and with walks from Pete Nelson, Niilo Benz and an RBI single from Jimmy Siemers as well as another run on a wild pitch, the score was 4-0. By the third inning, the Zurich team had extended its lead to 6-1. But then the Geneva team also turned on the turbo. The Tigers produced no fewer than twelve runs with ten hits and four walks. The Challengers managed to score another four runs, but ultimately had to admit the 10-13 defeat.
The Zurich team fell behind 0-5 in Game 2 against the Bern Cardinals, but their offense got off to an even better start. The Challengers scored no fewer than ten runs in the first inning. The Bern offense found the right answer and tied the game again in the third inning to 10-10. But the Challengers took the lead again in the bottom half of the third frame. Reinforcement player Naël Frey scored on a passed ball to make it 11-10. There were no more runs after that. In the last inning, the Cardinals even had the tying run on third base, but the Challengers defense survived the last Bern attack unscathed. This means that a season marked by countless weather-related cancellations ends on a positive note for the Challengers with the eleventh place.
NLB-Team swept at the Lake Geneva
The NLB-Team travelled to Lake Geneva for the placement games for the places nine to twelve. However it was a trip under the motto: nothing but expenses. The Challengers had no chance in the two games against the Lausanne Indians. A 1-11 defeat in the first game of the day was followed by a 1-13 in the second game. So the C’s will have to play a doubleheader against the Wil Pirates for places eleven and twelve. However, the latter already forfeited the first placement game against the Therwil Flyers, which is why it is still uncertain whether the games will be played at all.

The Challengers end the 2024 season with two wins against the Wil Prates. With the sweep the C’s finish in third place with an ultimately positive record of eight wins and seven losses.
The Zurich lineup revealed that the last gameday of the 2024 season was already a preparation for the 2025 season. No fewer than six U20 players were used and the young talents did a good job. The Challengers set the pace from the start. The Eastern Swiss were able to keep up until the sixth inning, but then the Zurich team made the decisive difference with five runs. James Sanders opened the scoring with an RBI single, Carsten Zuber and Säntis Zeller each scored on a wild pitch from the Pirates pitcher before Jordi Bucher made it 9-3 with a 2-run single. The last run for the final score of 11-4 was symbolic for the game with one of the youngest lineups in club history. Noam Blickenstorfer brought Niilo Benz home with an RBI single.
Säntis Zeller also made history. The eternally young middle infielder insisted on working on his personal bucket list. He is now the first Challengers player since Werner Zingg to play in every field position for an inning in a game. Ryan Byrne delivered the numbers for the game with five hits and four runs, while Simon Steffen was awarded the win for four innings as a relief pitcher, in which he gave up three hits and one run with five strikeouts.
The second game of the day went very similarly. The last game of the season was also tied for a long time before starting pitcher Carsten practically organized the win himself with an RBI double in the top half of the fifth inning to take a 2-1 lead. The Pirates were no longer able to make up the deficit. Quite the opposite. Thanks to two errors by the Pirates, Simon Steffen scored in the sixth inning to make it 3-1 and Jordi Bucher brought Jasper Freigang home with a bunt single to make it 4-1, before Regis Reinhard made it 5-2 with an RBI single in the seventh inning and then made the save with the last three outs to bring the Challengers season to a close.
Meanwhile, the Therwil Flyers secured their 16th Swiss championship title with a sweep in the best-of-five final series against the Zurich Barracudas.
