Our museum tells the story of how baseball came to the
little town of Norway after the end of the Civil War, and
culminated in twenty State High School Championships;
producing prolific numbers of college and semi pro players,
seventeen minor leaguers, and four who made it to all the
way to the Majors.
Truly, Norway had its own “Field Of Dreams” long before
that famous movie was made, but we hope you will come to
realize that it was the “Love of the Game” which inspired all
the success of Norway baseball.
The love of the the game kept Norway Baseball going from
father to son, through little league coaches and high school
coaches, from town team baseball to the big leagues… and
mothers, grandmas, sisters, aunts, girlfriends and wives
were all part of the love affair; they too shared the love of
the game, and allowed their men - no matter their age - to
become one of the “boys of summer”.
On the field it was all about playing the game right! It was
always David v. Goliath, but Norway’s tradition was its
trademark and each year the Legend of Norway Baseball
grew.
Yes, with the crack of a bat and the roar of a crowd, it’s easy
to see, a ball diamond was always Norway’s first love.
