The Bristol Blues were formed in 2000 and were founding members of the New England Vintage Base Ball League.  The Blues play highly competetive Vintage Base Ball by 1861 rules.  They play without gloves, without contracts, and without fear.  This is Base Ball the way it was meant to be played. To learn more about this amazing and historic style of Base Ball (yes, it was two words back in the 19th century), please visit one of the numerous informative links at the bottom of this page.
 
Step back in time to 1861 and enjoy the experience of a Bristol Blues Base Ball game.
