Hi all. Let me introduce my self. My name is eddie and i live in bromsgrove. I need your help in finding people who have been involved with the sport of baseball in birmingham from the 50`s onwards.
I used to play in the 80`s I have decided to research my old team and the league they used to play in. Then i hope it will spin off in lots of directions. I know lots of the big employers had Baseball teams in the 50`s like lucas, dunlop, ect plus the professional teams at Villa I`m looking for names and contact detalis of any body that has been involved and is willling to talk to me about playing baseball in Birmingham. I intend to archive details and publish a small artical and help outher people with there research in to baseball in the UK.
I look to forword to your replys as when i put baseball in to the search bar loads of entrys came up.

Thanks Eddie

I can remember going to WITTON LAKES on a Sunday morning to see Baseball being played ,some of my team mates inTHE BIRMINGHAM BARONS Ice Hockey Club used to play Harry Green , Ben Nash ,Reg Williams. are a few This would be around the late 50s .
The Guys were made keen on following the Nottingham Panthers Ice Hockey Team made up of Canadians/Yanks so it was just a spin off to be playing that other game, from over the pond.
