The American Legion Post 32/ Beckley Bash is now going into its ninth year of the new era.
There were teams in the past also. But the new era was after the team had folded a season and John Tabor picked the
ball up and took it the rest of the way. This year we will choose an alumni night and induct some of the older players
by investigation and use any new stats. People will need to be patient with us since it will be difficult for the original
times while we choose. We will select 4-6 from that pre-era and hope they can be there and then we shall also select
4-6 for the newer ballclubs. 1946 was the last state championship until the new reign and we have conquered the state
title in 2002 and 2005. We will list it on our schedule.

In the past, we have had several age groups below the legion and including the collegiate age group.
The BASH has decided to do away with 9 teams and focus only on a Sr. Legion team, which we are very good at, and a Jr. Legion/High
School team, which is a feeder into the Seniors. We will carry between 36 and 40 players on our NON PROFIT clubs.
This Jr team will be totally under the supervision and control of the BBAC and the AL Post 32 will not be a sponsor for this
team. Selecting players will be done by tryout and by special invitation. There will be a NON Refundable team
fee that will be due by June 1 for both clubs. It can be totally fundraised or you can donate to our 501C3 and our tax
number will be provided for you. We do not have state funding or national funding and we must do the best we can.
Playing time will be decided by the coaches, who in the most part have zero bias in anyway. Their job is to supervise,
promote players, and hopefully win along the way. This is a very competitive baseball club. We go
over a tremendous amount of material. Our pitchers are used in a rotation and we enjoy working with the young men.
We havent decided on national competition for this team but they will participate.
