Report
The Softball Ulster 2019 season was down to 5 teams from 6 in 2019, following the loss of the Belfast Angels.
At a little over halfway, the Aces led with a 4-2 Wins-Losses record, however both the Belfast Brawlers and Belfast Cubs had better records, standing at 3-0 each, putting them minus 0.5 games behind in the standings (i.e. 0.5 games ahead). Belfast Sliders were on 2-4 and Bangor Bucs on 0-6.
By the end of the season the Brawlers had finished out with five more wins, including two close crucial ones against the Cubs (14-10 and 22-20). In a tight race for second the Cubs finished on 5-3, the Aces 4-4 and the Belfast Sliders 3-5.
It was the Brawlers fifth Softball Ulster League Pennant in a row. The Belfast Sliders were the last other team to win it in 2015.
