Softball great Mark Sorenson has been named as the new coach of the Black Sox.
Sorenson takes over from Eddie Kohlhase who stepped down from the role after winning the World Championships in March, having held the role for nine years.
Sorenson captained New Zealand from 1989 to
2001, and again in 2004, leading the Black Sox to three successive world championship wins.
His previous coaching experience has included a stint as Junior Black Sox coach.
"This is obviously a huge honour for me, one that comes with a lot of tradition and a lot of success," Sorenson said.
