Our league began when the Georgia Peaches was created in 1985 by a group of former softball and baseball players (age 55+) who loved to play the game. This is the group of guys who started it all!! If you look closely, you will see a couple of familiar faces that are still playing in the league and playing tournament ball today. Others are still active in the league even though they may not be playing any longer. |
