No gloves, no experience needed—just a love for the game and a spirit for fun!📍 Where: Colbert Park, Savoy, IL (Follow the park entrance road straight to the open grass field. Parking available in the lot or along the street.)
📅 When: First match begins at 11 AM, with a second match to follow after a short break.
🎟️ Free admission! Family-friendly fun for all ages.
During the intermission, young fans will have a chance to interact on the field with vintage players in a safe, controlled setting before play resumes.
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!
