The Baltimore Dodgers Urgently Need Your Support


Who Are the Baltimore Dodgers?

We are a community-based equal opportunity collegiate summer baseball program that develops the most diverse group of college-eligible baseball players and provides exposure to college coaches for potential scholarships and to Major League Baseball scouts. While emphasizing baseball fundamentals, sportsmanship, and integrity, the Baltimore Dodgers advances the skills of baseball players competing at the highest amateur level.

Although we recruit from Division I programs, we also realize this opportunity does not exist for most players that are talented enough to play for top Division I programs but have chosen to attend community colleges or Division II & III universities.

We look to afford these players the same opportunity for exposure. The Baltimore Dodgers is also an organization that offers opportunities for young women and men to obtain experience in a wide variety of sports management functions. Internships include statisticians, information technologists, multimedia specialists, and coaching assistants.

To operate efficiently, we enlist sponsorship partners, individual donors and volunteers to create a team of key contributors. Also, your funds would also be used to support the newly established Baltimore Dodgers Scholarship fund.

The scholarship fund is designed to provide all full-time high school seniors and undergraduate college students with a one-time grant, aimed at helping the student with college tuition or books.
The keys to receiving college baseball scholarships and the opportunity to play Major League Baseball are:

+++Exposure to college scouts
+++Exposure to Major League Baseball scouts
+++Experiencing the highest level of amateur competition

College-eligible players under the age of 23 can achieve ALL of these goals by participating in one of the summer collegiate baseball leagues that is a member of the National Alliance of College Summer Baseball (NACSB). The NACSB is sanctioned by Major League Baseball. The Cal Ripken Collegiate Baseball League (CRCBL) is a member of the NACSB and provides a platform for elite college baseball players to compete at the highest level.
