After the success of the baseball exhibition game in September 2022, the Ranelagh Baseball Club is back in the spotlight! Long abandoned, the baseball club rises from its ashes in the spring of 2021 and lands in the Paris Championship for the year 2023, with four games against clubs in the capital. Let's meet in the 16th arrondissement, at theHippodrome d'Auteuil, on the rugby field that hosts the Stade Français, to enjoy this typical American sport for free!
Very few people play this American sport par excellence in France, but the Stade de France will host an official US pro season game with the Los Angeles Dodgers in the spring of 2025! The Ranelagh Baseball Club is back after nearly a century of inactivity, as the Paris club was the first in the world to bring baseball to the 1924 Olympic Games in the capital. In the 20th century, the Paris Baseball League regularly saw six teams compete in a championship between the Bois de Boulogne, Colombes and Bagatelle.
It's off to several games, against the PUC, the Patriot's, the ESC Paris15 and the Web's, from April to June, with the objective of winning the championship to move up to the regional level. For the Olympic Games, the club is planning a new baseball demonstration and wishes to set up on the Bagatelle playground to create the first eco-responsible baseball field in Europe and turn it into a French "Central Park"!
For the curious who want to discover this sport in a different way than on TV or in movies, animations and catering areas are planned on site to live the experience to the fullest!
