The British Baseball Pavilion’s South East Chapter will meet at The Globe Pub on Morning Lane in Hackney at 6.00 pm on March 15 to get in an hour of banter about the upcoming Spring League, the start to the season and the latest player moves across the BBF divisions before heading to the Empire to enjoy the show.
This follows the inaugural meeting of the Pavilion in Central London last month, where over 15 players representing 15 different teams, including some from the GB Baseball programme, came together to enjoy one another’s company off the diamond.
The March meeting and the trip to see Shadowball will take place just two days before National Baseball League clubs take to the field for the first round of Herts Spring League matches, and nine days before other clubs hit the field for pre-season games organised by the Herts and Leicester baseball Clubs.
British Baseball Pavilion co-ordinators Joe Gray and Michael Jones were delighted with the attendance at the first meeting in early February, with members of the Brentwood Stags in particular enjoying the opportunity to spread baseball’s gospel to other members of the bar!
