South Sudan

[South Sudan: The country with the shortest history of baseball]

In 2018, when I was assigned to South Sudan as the head of the JICA office, I coached baseball and softball on weekends, which led to the establishment of the South Sudan Baseball and Softball Federation in 2020. In July 2022, we held a Baseballership® seminar in Juba, which was a challenge from scratch, as there were very few coaches, so we conducted it for junior and senior high school students.
