Thunder Bay Senior Baseball has had a proud tradition of running a program of quality, competitive local baseball since the early 1920’s. It has had its up and downs through good times, depression, and war and has managed to survive, through it all. Why? Probably because it is a sport that a player can pick up when he or she is young and can be played into adulthood. This is where our league fits in. We have a variety of players with varying degrees of skill. Players that wish to stay in Thunder Bay and work or go to school, but still wish to play baseball juggle a family, work, school and everything else just to get to the ball park. We have a dedicated core of ball players that, on a daily basis find their way to Baseball Central, don a uniform and come out to compete. Why would players put themselves through all of this just to play a game? It’s called the “love of the game”. Thunder Bay has had a lot of really talented baseball players come up through our ranks and we are proud to have had a place for them to play. Many players in the TBSBA have gone on to gain athletic and scholastic scholarships, some have gone onto pro and semi-pro careers and some are working their way toward the same. Other players in the league compete just for the camaraderie and to stay fit. No matter what, we (TBSBA) are proud to be a part of it all

I wish all the players the best of luck throughout the 2005 season and look forward to the finals when the best 2 teams battle it out for the league title. The players are not playing for world series rings or cash bonuses, just pride and the will to be the City’s best. “GOOD LUCK”.
