Welcome to sheboyganbaseball.org, the official website of the Sheboygan A's and the Sheboygan Athletic Club.
The club has been in operation since 1963 and has been working hard for the community and the athletes of the community who have chosen to accept the challenge that competitive baseball offers.
The marquee program of the Sheboygan Athletic Club is the Sheboygan A's, the adult semi-pro team that competes in the Wisconsin State Baseball League and the Northeastern Wisconsin League.
The A's play some 60 games a year and the 30-plus home dates feature entertainment, accompanying events and a variety of family oriented special promotions.
The A's are sponsored by the Sheboygan Athletic Club, a small group of enthusiastic people that meets monthly (usually the third Monday night), and coordinate the club's activity. Baseball fans in Sheboygan who have an interest in baseball and would like to work with the organization to ensure that baseball remains viable in Sheboygan are welcome to join the club and attend meetings.
The club, a 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization that is recognized as a charitable organization by the State of Wisconsin, has undertaken a major renovation project at Wildwood Park this year. It is in the process or raising money to replace screen and fencing, build new dugouts, replace the lighting system, increase parking and erect a new scoreboard.
