The GHTBL has organized competitive baseball since the summer of 1929. It all started at Colt Park during the game’s Golden Era, when top players from the Greater Hartford area went straight from the twi-loop to the professional ranks.

Greater Hartford Twilight Baseball League
The Greater Hartford Twilight Baseball League is Connecticut’s classic summer league. Since 1929, the Twi-loop has sustained a local tradition and a high level of amateur baseball. Our 24-game Regular Season begins in late May followed by a double-elimination Playoff Tournament in August. Most GHTBL players have collegiate experience. 375+ alumni have played professional. Jeff Bagwell, Bernie Williams, Rob Dibble and Ricky Bottalico joined GHTBL before becoming MLB All-Stars.
