NS Knights

The NS Knights are our premier squad – the squad participates in the ABA premier and premier reserves competitions as well as competing for national titles at the BNZ club classic. Premier is the most competitive adult grade played within the Auckland Baseball Association and premier reserves is the associated development grade ensuring game time for all squad members. Games are played on Sundays on a full size diamond with 90’ base-paths and a 60’6″ pitching distance.

The Knights have been highly successful at the highest levels of baseball in Auckland and New Zealand with results since 2020 below and recent representative honours listed here.
