This being our Sixtieth year
since Bill White, George Warner, Bill Stoner and Ralph Bartlett conceived the
idea of building a league for the 15- and 16-year-old players that could play
on their American Legion team but were not getting meaningful playing time
to develop their talent. Greensboro Youth Baseball, Inc. has seen over
11,500 young men come through its program. Our sole mission is to provide the
best possible venues for the 14-, 15-, and 16-year-old youth of Guilford County
and the surrounding areas to play baseball. From beginnings considered humble
by today’s standards, playing at Summerfield, Oak Ridge, Rankin
Schools and occasionally, a tournament game at War Memorial Stadium, we now
have a facility like Stoner White Stadium in Jaycee Park. Greensboro Youth
Baseball, Inc. has been a self-sustaining, not-for-profit corporation, deriving
no income from any governmental body. No Director or person associated with the
Greensboro Youth Baseball Board has ever derived any income from it. Our Board
is comprised of volunteers drawn from the ranks of men and women who selfishly
give of their time and money toward a common commitment to the youth baseball
of Guilford County. We have no salaried employees. The only individuals who
receive compensation are umpires, scorekeepers and other game personnel who are
contracted for their services. Even these people work substantially below
scale for their particular specialty because of their affinity for the Greensboro
COLT League program and the quality of baseball it’s traditionally fielded.
