Campbelltown Ghosts Baseball Club is a community baseball organisation located in the south-western suburbs of Sydney, Australia.
With our beginnings tracing back to 1956 and the Campbelltown Colonials (the very first baseball Club of the Macarthur region), today we have around 130 active players participating in the local Macarthur Baseball League (MBL).
Our home ground is the Woodlands Road Baseball Complex in the Campbelltown suburb of St Helens Park. A waste management facility during the 1970s, ‘Woodlands’ has been progressively developed into one of the best facilities for local baseball.
Ghosts' players are both male and female and aged from 4 years and up. Our teams participate in age- and skills-appropriate games as part of the MBL’s competition through each Summer (Juniors and Seniors) and Winter (Seniors only).
Our Club welcomes anyone with an interest in learning about and sharing our passion for the great sport of baseball.
We pride ourselves on being accessible and family-friendly, and expect our players and members to at all times demonstrate the values of fair play, respect for teammates and officials, inclusion and support for each other both on and off the diamond.
In return, we provide a Club environment which aims to ensure everyone can ‘have a go’ and which celebrates skills and sportsmanship as much as success.
At Ghosts, we believe the baseball ‘experience’ is more than just showing up on game day to play. We encourage all members to be involved in every aspect of the Club so it can continue on providing the same benefit it has for so many local people for the years to come.
