The 2003 All Africa Games Baseball Tournament was held in Abuja, Nigeria from 7 to 14 October as part of the program of the 2003 All-Africa Games. It was contested by five national teams: Nigeria, Lesotho, South Africa, Uganda and Zimbabwe; Cameroon was scheduled to participate but withdrew. This was the second and, as of the 2023 edition, last time that baseball was featured in the African Games.
South Africa won the gold medal after defeating hosts Nigeria in the final game 15âÂÂ0. Zimbabwe claimed the bronze medal after defeating Uganda 17âÂÂ4 in the third place match. All the games were played at Old Parade Ground.
As African champions, South Africa faced Australia in the AfricaâÂÂOceania playoff to determine what team would qualify to the 2004 Summer Olympics. They lost 1âÂÂ8, 4âÂÂ6 and 1âÂÂ13 in the best of five games series against Australia, failing to advance to the Olympics.
