League Stadium, Baseball stadium in Huntingburg, United States.
League Stadium is a baseball stadium in Huntingburg, Indiana, with wooden bleachers in the style of 19th-century ballparks and seating for around 2,800 spectators. The open-air field sits within a compact structure that keeps the feel of old small-town American baseball.
The stadium was built in 1894, making it one of the oldest active baseball venues in the country. Its original grandstand has survived over the decades while different regional teams have used the field at various points in its history.
The stadium drew worldwide attention after the 1992 film 'A League of Their Own' was shot here, and fans of the movie still come to walk the same ground seen on screen. The wooden bleachers and open field look much the same as they did during filming.
The stadium is in downtown Huntingburg and easy to reach on foot from the town center. Visiting during the summer baseball season gives you the best chance of catching a live game on the historic field.
The venue also served as the filming location for the 1995 HBO production 'Soul of the Game', a fact that many visitors who know about the 1992 film do not realize. Both productions chose the site because its wooden bleachers required almost no changes to look like a period setting.
