Welcome to Their Turn at Bat, a digital museum preserving the story of the National Girls Softball League (NGSL), later known as the National Girls Baseball League (NGBL), which operated from 1944 to 1954. Before Title IX, the Olympics, and the modern era of women’s sports, athletes were already competing in organized baseball and softball across the country, with professional leagues like the NGBL part of that growing landscape. Explore the organizations, people, teams, stadiums, photographs, and stories—and discover the legacy of the women who took the field.
