National Baseball Congress : ウィキペディア英語版 | National Baseball Congress The National Baseball Congress of Wichita, Kansas is an organization of 15 amateur and semi-professional baseball leagues operating in the United States and Canada. Since its founding in 1934 by Hap Dumont, it has conducted an annual North American championship tournament among its members, The National Baseball Congress World Series, held at Wichita's Lawrence-Dumont Stadium annually since 1935. ==History== Dumont said he was inspired to start the league after seeing a huge crowd for the circus clown-firemen baseball game in Wichita (the clowns were not allowed to perform on Sundays because of Blue Laws). In 1931, he started the ''National Semi-Pro Baseball Congress Kansas State Tournament'' on former Ackerman Island in Wichita (located a few blocks north of Lawrence Stadium). After a fire destroyed the old wood stadium, the city built the Lawrence Stadium on its present site. In 1935, he offered Satchel Paige $1,000 to bring his touring Bismarck Churchills from Bismarck, North Dakota, team to Wichita.〔http://www.wichitadelano.com/history/baseballandapplepie.htm〕 Paige struck out 60 batters and won four games. With the rise of Minor League Baseball, the league now is for amateur athletes.〔(History of the NBC - nbcbaseball.com - Retrieved September 5, 2009 )〕 ==Leagues〔http://www.nbcbaseball.com/leagues.html 〕== , there are 15 member leagues:
