NBC WORLD SERIES.
Since 1935, the NBC World Series has brought together the nation's top amateur and summer collegiate baseball teams in Wichita, Kansas, creating one of the longest-running and most storied traditions in the game.
​
Old Fort Baseball Co. is proud to partner with the NBC World Series to help celebrate and preserve the history of this iconic tournament.
THE STORY.
The NBC World Series has long been one of baseball's most celebrated stages for amateur competition, bringing together championship clubs from across the country and providing countless players the opportunity to compete at the highest level.
​
For Fort Wayne, the tournament holds an even deeper meaning.
​
Between 1947 and 1956, Fort Wayne clubs captured five NBC World Series championships, including an unprecedented four consecutive titles from 1947 through 1950. Teams like the GE Voltmen, Capeharts, and Dairymen helped establish Fort Wayne as one of the most successful baseball communities in tournament history.
​
That championship tradition continues to inspire our work today, making this partnership a natural extension of Old Fort's mission to preserve and celebrate baseball history.
OUR PARTNER
The National Baseball Congress (NBC) is best known for hosting the NBC World Series, an annual baseball tournament that brings together elite teams from across the country.
​
As the tournament has grown, so has the impact it creates. The NBC Baseball Foundation was formed, dedicated to supporting the future of baseball by preserving its rich history and fostering the development of young athletes.
​
Both aspects—the tournament and the foundation—work together to uphold and grow the spirit of baseball for future generations.
