CNBLL - A
Brief History:
On July 16, 1964,
Little League Baseball was granted a
Congressional Charter of Federal Incorporation.
Cranston National Little League was actually
established several years prior to that date.
Approximately 30
years ago, Tom and Kathy Fitz-Simon established
the Budlong Baseball Instructional League. In
1997, both leagues merged, creating the current
league name, Cranston National Budlong Little
League (CNBLL). A trophy in the name of
Kathy Fitz-Simon is presented each year to the
girl who exhibits outstanding sportsmanship. In
1998, Garden City Field was renamed Fitz-Simon
Field. In the 2000 season, a girls fast pitch
division was added to the league, giving the
children of our community an even greater
opportunity to play and learn.
