This presentation offers an exciting opportunity to explore how Illinois played a significant role in the formation of the AAGPBL. Anna will trace the evolution of women’s baseball from its 19th-century beginnings to the establishment of the league in 1943. She will discuss how the league’s unique rules developed over time and highlight the teams that made history—particularly the Illinois teams: the Rockford Peaches, Springfield Sallies, Peoria Redwings, and Chicago Colleens. This program is one hour long and will start at 1 p.m. at the Steeple Building Museum. The presentation is free and open to the public. Organized by the BHHA and sponsored by the IHC Road Scholar Speakers Bureau.
