One of America's most historic arenas, Hinchliffe was built at the height of the Great Depression and is one of the last remaining Negro League stadiums in the country. It played a major role in baseball history as one of the few places where African American could play. Once serving as the home field for the NY Black Yankees, NY Cubans, and Newark Eagles, over 20 Hall of Famers graced these hallowed grounds. It was a place where legends like Larry Doby and Josh Gibson wowed crowds... Now, we join the halls of history as we proudly call Hinchliffe home.

We firmly believe that humility is an essential characteristic as we seek to improve every day. Everything that we achieve is the result of sacrifice and hard work, and humility enables us to avoid becoming complacence. Our overriding mentality is our winning spirit, which defines our attitude in every respect and sees us adopt a positive attitude to the objectives we set ourselves each season.
