Hammer Indoor Training
GBA announces a major fundraising campaign to build an indoor training facility at Hammer Field. Learn more about our plans and how you can support this important initiative.
Building on the Tradition
Committed to the Future
GBA is proud to start our fundraising campaign already having secured $15,000 towards our goal of $60,000. We are confident that with the support of our community, we can see to it that current and future GBA players have a safe, secure, weather-proof training facility available to them year round. Please see below for more information and how to support our fundraising efforts.
Hammer Indoor Training
"I'm going to HIT."
HIT will be a new, steel-frame structure large enough to hold three lanes of batting cages. This will provide safer warm-up places for pitchers and hitters, year-round practice spaces even in inclement weather, and cost-efficient training opportunities for more kids. The structure will serve as an investment in our players, organization, families, and community.
HELP US HIT OUR GOAL
Brick Fundraiser and Donations
We are devoted to constructing a quality resource for our kids, and as a non-profit organization this means we need donor help to build. To show how much we value your support, we are offering a special fundraiser for this project. Interested donors may purchase engraved commemorative bricks to be placed at Hammer Field. Engraved messages made in memory or honor of someone will serve as a lifelong reminder of special memories and people associated with Greenfield, GBA, and beyond. GBA will be honored to acknowledge your support for this project with a special brick walkway for all to view.
The online ordering process for bricks is available at the Polar Engraving website here.
-
Prices are: $125 for a 4x8 brick or $500 for 12x12 brick (with additional $10 for the inclusion of a clipart image). You may also purchase a special replica brick as a keepsake, if you wish.
-
Through the Polar Engraving site, you will be able to pay online with a credit card, or opt to send a check. The mailing address will be listed.

If you prefer to sign-up for a brick in person with one of our GBA representatives, please contact us to make arrangements.
