Whether you’re a seasoned ballist or have never played a day in your life, all are welcome to take the field and experience base ball as it was meant to be—the 1850s way! No gloves, no experience needed—just a love for the game and a spirit for fun!

Vintage base ball is a living history experience, bringing the game’s earliest days to life with the rules and customs of the mid-19th century. The Champaign Clippers proudly play as members of the Vintage Base Ball Association (VBBA).
Come as you are and play, or simply enjoy the spectacle—Huzzah!
