Everything about The New England Collegiate Baseball League totally explained
The
New England Collegiate Baseball League (
NECBL) is a 12-team amateur summer
baseball league founded in
1993 and sanctioned by the
NCAA and
Major League Baseball. Each NECBL team plays an eight-week, 42-game schedule during June and July, with a playoff in early August. Like the
Cape Cod Baseball League and other amateur leagues, the NECBL is a showcase for top college-level players, giving professional baseball
scouts a chance to see prospective pros playing against each other. It is considered one of the top summer leagues in the country.
Founded in 1993, the NECBL began its direction under
George Foster, former
Cincinnati Reds and
New York Mets All-Star and
Major League Baseball home run leader, and
Emmy Award-winning television producer/director
Joseph Consentino. Play started in
1994 and today the NECBL has become a strong twelve-team league that plays in all six
New England states. It recruits players attending U.S. colleges from New England, the other 44 states, and foreign countries, provided that they come from NCAA-sanctioned colleges or universities, are in good academic standing, have completed at least one year of athletic eligibility, and have at least one year of eligibility remaining.
