USPA NEWS - These ragtime legends of baseball are on the field most weekend mornings from April to October every year. There are no million dollar contracts, no major endorsements or fame. What they have is a pure desire to play ball the way baseball was played in the 1800's, from the heart. See for yourself.
We had the privilege of covering a historic baseball doubleheader between the Providence Grays and the New Hampshire Granite at Slater Memorial Park this past Sunday. As we prepared our photography equipment the players lined the field and warmed up for the game, and fans began to align their chairs for the best view. Wow! What a spectacular event.
Contemplate the possibility of having a father and son activity to share, think historic baseball. Imagine brothers playing vintage baseball traveling from game to game through most of their adulthood having the time of their lives. Think of the wife or girlfriend on the sidelines cheering you on game after game in support of your love of “the game“, baseball. Dare to dream of the legacy you will leave that casts lasting footprints for others to follow. Step up to the plate and educate the community about what once was, what it is today and how you can impact tomorrow by getting involved. Show others your passion and inspire them! Touch a child´s life and make a difference by having a catch with the neighborhood kids.
Now you have seen into the hearts of these men. Men of vintage baseball lead by example. So look for a historic baseball game next season and see for yourself how these men make a difference.

Hey! Consider taking a moment to share your gift with others. Being a mentor to youth can be rewarding. You may find yourself getting more from the experience than expected.
