Jesmond Mizzi Financial Advisers has sponsored the Softball Gozo Cup. The sponsorship will cover the organisation of a tournament to be run by the Għajnsielem Redcoats, which is to be held annually in July.

The first edition of this competition will be an all-Redcoats affair. Four youth teams will compete in a double elimination tournament, which means that teams have to win two games to earn the right to contest the cup final.

The four youth teams of the Għajnsielem Redcoats – Leinster Royals, Connaught Rangers, 63rd West Suffolk Sluggers and 31st Regiment Athletics – are named after British regiments stationed at Fort Chambray during the 19th century.

The Għajnsielem Redcoats participate in the tournaments and leagues organised by the Malta Baseball and Softball Association. The club has over 70 players registered with it, and seven teams participating in MABS U-9, U-13, U-15, women’s and the National Softball League competitions.
