The Atlantic league

BFOD has been holding on-going discussions to bring a team from the Atlantic League to the ballpark we build. The Atlantic League has an established process in place for officially granting a new ball club that includes site visits; meeting with elected officials, etc., which can only begin after site control.


The mission of the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball Clubs, Inc., which started play in 1998, is to bring a high level of professional baseball and affordable family entertainment to selected communities not presently being served by Major League or Minor League teams.
