The Geelong-Korea were a professional baseball team in the Australian Baseball League. One of two expansion teams added to the ABL for the 2018–19 season,[1] the team was based in the city of Geelong, Victoria and played its home games at Geelong Baseball Park. All professional members of the team were Korean.[2]

Geelong-Korea played in only three of their five seasons in the league, having sat out the 2020–21 and 2021–22 Australian Baseball League seasons due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The team folded following the 2022–2023 season.[3]
