The Roy Hobbs Baseball League was born in March 1987. The league is a nonprofit organization that organizes baseball for adults 28 years and older. In recent years the league has varied from 8-12 teams that play a 22-24 game season, starting in June and running through November. The league emphasizes competitive play, family oriented activities, and community service. They are committed to turning the old into the young, at least at heart. Their unofficial motto is “Baseball from Tee-ball to the grave.”
