At just 21 years old , Ryan Earley is already turning heads as a rising outfield talent with the STK squad heading into the 2025 season. Wearing jersey #24 , Ryan’s blend of speed, athleticism, and genuine passion for the game is hard to miss. Born and raised in Auckland, New Zealand , he’s been around a ball diamond his whole life—and now, he’s gearing up for what he calls the “coolest event of his life”: his first ISC World Tournament . A Diamond From Day One Ryan’s connection to fastpitch softball started almost from birth. “I’ve been around the diamond since I can remember,” he says. “My dad and brother were both involved, so it was always part of my world. I fell in love with the game, the community, and especially the mates I’ve made along the way.” Growing up, his brother Max and his best mate Oscar were constant motivators. “They’ve always pushed me,” he says. “And of course, playing with guys like Cole Evans and Nathan Nukunuku —who also coached me—was huge for my development.” Goals for 2025 and Beyond Ryan’s goals for the upcoming season are as team-focused as they are personal. “I just want to be as impactful as I can to help the team win ,” he says. “If I can lock down a starting spot and become a go-to guy , that’s a huge win for me.” He’s focused on his mental approach at the plate , simplifying at-bats, staying in the moment, and learning from every pitch. “Confidence is everything. I’ve been guilty of putting too much pressure on myself before, so now I’m working on trusting my game.”
