Baseball Club Pledge Drive 2025

The success of our program has been in large part due to the annual donations provided by family, friends and alumni of the program who help offset our $60,000 annual budget. Our $20,000 goal for donations will go directly towards the following expenses:

• Field Rentals: Our home field, Beekman Field, is now a parking lot and we have to travel up to 45 minutes away from campus to be able to play
• Equipment including baseballs, new bats, team bags and training items
• Travel for conference, Spring Training and post-season games
• Hotel expenses, van rental fees and fuel
• Umpire Fees
• Home, away and alternate uniforms

The Baseball Club is under the Department of Recreational Sports within the Office of Student Life at The Ohio State University. The club is designed for students who wish to continue their baseball careers, but focus primarily on their education at the university. The program provides, on average, 50 students an opportunity to play competitive baseball versus other collegiate club teams. While the time commitment is significantly less than a varsity level program, the competition is very similar to NCAA Division III programs. We have two teams who compete in the National Club Baseball Association at the Division I and Division II levels. The NCBA is made up of more than 300 teams divided into 3 Divisions.

Each team schedules more than 30 games per season including their annual trip to Panama City, Florida to play 6 games in the NCBA Spring Training Showcase. There is also an opportunity to play in a Regional and World Series playoffs. The program has over a .700 win percentage over the past 24 seasons versus college teams and 18 playoff appearances over the past 12 seasons, including a 2023 National Championship for DII. This success on the field has made the program one of the best in the country with annual win totals more than any other.
