The mission of SBL and the Atlanta Blues (formerly Marietta Patriots) remains the same which is to provide a first-class collegiate summer program dedicated to helping young college athletes achieve their dreams of playing at the professional level. Our goal is for our players to be in position to grow from being a good to a great athlete on and off the field.
This year we will have players who are upperclassmen from some of the top DI, DII and Juco schools. Our goal is simple… make sure that our team is comprised of players who want to compete every play and every game!
In 2018, the SunBelt Baseball League welcomed more than 50,000 fans to the ball park! Every game offers unique, memorable fan experiences that promote family fun, on-field and in stadium activities. It is our goal that our fan experience is just as important as fielding a competitive team.
It is the mission of the Atlanta Blues is to provide a valuable opportunity and experience for each of our players to play wood bat baseball against top-level competition with the goal of preparing them for a successful career at his collegiate school and then at the professional level.
Our team roster will consist of thirty (30) college players who have the desire and talent to compete at high level. These players will have completed one year of college or have college eligibility remaining, as will players representing other SBL teams. This standard ensures we are presenting the Sun Belt Baseball League with the highest level of pre-professional amateur baseball in America.
