WAVIT's Annual Softball Showdown Returns for a Second Inning of Fun-draising
Second Annual WAVIT Softball Tournament set for May 17th.
Anaheim, CA – April 2, 2025 – Women in AV/IT (WAVIT) is stepping up to the plate once again with the second annual Northeast Regional Service Provider Softball Tournament, scheduled for May 17, 2025, at Palisades Ball Park in New Jersey. After last year's event knocked it out of the park, this year’s tournament promises even more fun, fellowship, and philanthropy.
This year's lineup includes returning and new all-stars from Digital Labor Solutions, Atlantis UGS, Exertis Almo, Neat, and Yorktel, ready to take the field for a cause that’s close to home plate—supporting women in the AV/IT industry. The friendly competition raises funds for WAVIT’s outreach initiatives, including our Waves of Influence Mentorship Program, which connects women with the resources and guidance they need to thrive in our industry.
"We’re thrilled to be heading into the second inning of what’s becoming one of our favorite annual traditions," said Gina Sansivero, WAVIT Founder, and Board Member. "This isn’t just about softball—it’s about bringing the industry together to champion inclusion, mentorship, and opportunity. Whether you’re swinging for the fences or cheering from the dugout, your support helps us expand our reach and knock down barriers for women in AV/IT."
