AMERICAN LEGION BASEBALL
Since 1925, The American Legion has sponsored a nationwide youth baseball program.  During these past eight decades, over 10 million players have enjoyed playing the game of baseball.  The American Legion and the 2.7 million members have raised millions of dollars each year to give young baseball players an opportunity to learn the importance of teamwork, team loyalty, discipline, leadership and good sportsmanship.  The purpose of American Legion Baseball has always been to help develop America's youth that will someday step forward and become the nation's future leaders. VISIT  www.legion.org/baseball
NEBRASKA AMERICAN LEGION BASEBALL
In 2009, Nebraska American Legion Baseball supported over 300 Junior and Senior teams across the state, comprised of over 4,100 players.  Posts, sponsors, parent groups and countless volunteers successfully conducted 41 District tournaments and 7 State tournaments, culminating in 2 Nebraska Class A teams participating in two Regional national tournaments.  Nebraska American Legion Baseball conducts one of the strongest programs in the country and is one of the top programs in the nation in players per capita.
THE AMERICAN LEGION
The American Legion is the largest veteran's organization in the world with a membership of nearly 3 Million war-time veterans in the United States, District of Columbia and four foreign countries.  Members of The American Legion are honorably discharged men and women who served their country on active duty in the Armed Forces of the United States during World War I, World War II, Korea, Vietnam, Lebanon, Grenada, Panama and Persian Gulf Wars and Conflicts.  The American Legion was founded and organized in 1919.  Since that time, The American Legion has touched virtually every facet of American life, fulfilling its main objective of service to the community, state and nation.
VISIT www.legion.org to learn more about the programs and purpose of The American Legion.

BaseballNebraska has been promoting and publicizing American Legion Baseball since 2006, primarily at the Class A level. The website will be expanding to include Classes B and C (both Juniors and Seniors) for the 2010 season and will include schedules, scores, standings, rosters, news stories and photos for all three classes. Teams that are interested in participating may contact Jody Moeller or Jack Mayfield to request an information package.  This is an excellent option for listing all the information for your team(s) and promoting your program to an audience that includes players, fans, high school and Legion coaches, college coaches and professional scouts.
