GRANITE STATE BASEBALL

HISTORY LESSON 

The Granite State Baseball Association provides New Hampshire baseball players between the ages of 13 and 16 the opportunity to play baseball during the summer months.  Prior to the GSBA's Summer Wood Bat League, NH ballplayers had limited options for playing baseball once they moved up to the 90 foot diamond.  They could choose costly Travel Teams, attempt to find tournaments in other State or just not play ball past the Middle School, High School and Town League seasons. 

In 2005 GSBA started their first summer season, at that time the league used metal bats and had three divisions for players ages 13 to 15 year old. Since then the GSBA has grown significantly, over the summer months the GSBA offers wood bat leagues for players ages 13 to 16.  In addition to the summer league the GSBA started their fall wood bat baseball league in 2006, the GSBA's fall leagues are for players ages 13 to 19 year old and in 2007 the GSBA started the 
Showcase League, a league designed to provide New Hampshire High School ball players exposure to college coaches while playing the highest level of baseball New Hampshire has to offer in the fall months.

Back in 2005 at the GSBA's start the purpose of the GSBA was to provide New Hampshire Ball Players the opportunity to play baseball and while doing so improve the overall quality of baseball played in New Hampshire, now entering our 6th summer season in 2010 our goals remain the same as we try to include more and more players with each season.  GSBA takes pride in the fact that the towns that enter teams in our programs year after year find themselves deep in the NHIAA tournaments.  Including Class L's 2009 Final between Keene (Champion) and Alvirne both who fielded teams in our Varsity League in 2008 and are back in 2009, our results speak for themselves, to find out how to get your team or son involved with the GSBA contact
