This page is being updated with information about Teams and Team list back to 1957

Baseball was first played in the ACT during the 1930s with informal games between public service teams. In 1957, the ACT Baseball Association was formed and the first registered club was Ainslie followed in 1958 by Rebels now Woden. There is now six clubs in the local competition: Ainslie, Bandits, Eagles, Indians, Vikings and Southern Cross Woden.

 Since 2003 the ACTBA aligned its hierarchy with the ABF.  Whereas now the ACTBA Executive consists of a Commissioner, Deputy Commissioner, General Manager (GM) and up to five Directors.  Apart from the GM these positions have set tenures as per the Constitution but incumbents may be elected again into that or another position.

 

Prior to 2003 the ACTBA Executive hierarchy consists of the President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary and Public Officer.  The ACTBA Board numbers were comprised of the six club Presidents and a member of the ACTBUA [Umpires] who are responsible for actioning National Directives through the Executive.
