OKLAHOMA CITY - The International Softball Federation is seeking a new site for the world championships next year.

The group's president, Don Porter, announced Tuesday that the championships scheduled for next July in Oklahoma City would be moved to a different date and country due to a conflict with an international tournament held in Puerto Rico.

Amateur Softball Association executive director Ron Radigonda says Hall of Fame Stadium in Oklahoma City doesn't have other open dates to host the tournament. The site also hosts the Women's College World Series and other tournaments throughout the year.

Jakarta, Indonesia, was the only other site to submit a bid for the world championships, which were awarded to Oklahoma City in October. By Associated Press
