Team History & Mission
Formed during the Winter of 2004, the
Simsbury Taverneers Vintage Base Ball Club
operates out of its home town of Simsbury,
Connecticut.
Vintage Base Ball (yes, it was two words
originally) is the game we now know as Baseball
played by the rules and customs of an earlier
period. "Ballists" wear period uniforms
and recreate the game as it was played in the
late 1800's.
The Taverneers play on their home fields
at Simsbury High School, Memorial Field, and
Town Forest Field
and will be dedicated to the preservation of the
history of our great American pastime, Base
Ball, the game "as it was meant to be played". |
