What began in 2021 as an idea to help further the recognition of the Chatham Coloured All-Stars and early Black baseball in Canada, has now grown into an annual event to celebrate and honour the legacies players left behind.
Each year we celebrate and honour the legacy of the Chatham Coloured All-Stars and Black baseball in Canada with a charity baseball game, “The Field of Honour”. Descendants of early Black baseball players in Chatham-Kent compete against one another in a friendly day of fun and softball at Fergie Jenkins Field at Rotary Park in Chatham, Ontario.
The 2023 Field of Honour Charity Baseball Game will be taking place on Saturday 23rd of September.
If you are interested in sponsorship opportunities for the Field of Honour Charity Baseball Game, please download the information pamphlet below or email us for more details.
