The Red Stick Amateur Baseball League is a local affiliate organization to the national MSBL/MABL organization, whose members play organized and competitive baseball around the greater Baton Rouge area and beyond. Within the RSABL you will find a wide demographic of players from around our communities, from local business owners, doctors, lawyers, blue collar, white collar, college students, coaches, and former professional athletes; we all gather each year and are united by a common passion for playing and enjoying the game of baseball. The RSABL has grown to providing 5 different divisions of baseball. A summer collegiate wooden bat developmental league for college players, a wood bat men's amateur league for guys 18 years of age or older, a open class men's senior league for guys 35 years of age or older, an fall amateur wooden bat league open to anyone 18 and older, and a competitive travel team with players choosen from amongst our leagues. Organizational Purpose: The goal of the RSABL has expanded over the years. Our original goals have always been to provide baseball to a demographic that would traditionally be without following their high school, college, or professional careers, with our men's baseball leagues. Just because a person is 18, 28. 38, 48 or over doesn’t mean that he loves baseball any less. However with our expansion into the summer collegiate league and competitive objectives in our amateur divisions, we've also focused some of our goals towards helping young men succeed in the baseball careers beyond what time they may spend with us. The RSABL invites all men interested at any skill level to take part and get involved, the RSABL offers something for athletes of nearly any skill level. HOW DO YOU GET INVOLVED?
