This operating unit is the fastest growing unit in the society.  Amazingly popular for being in a small U.S. mid-western city, Springfield has become a major Mecca for Ancient Athletic competitions.

Kevin & Bill Rogers started the athletics quite a few years ago and did a great job in getting it off of the ground.  Merl Lawless and John Moore took over from there and helped take it to the next level.  From there, many more of us have been added to the mix, and the results of the solid start and new blood have created an Athletic Powerhouse for the Midwest.  At one time, Springfield hosted the Master’s World Championships, and we hope to do that again one day. We currently host and participate in several events throughout the year in various locations.  You can come and see us at any of our venues throughout the year, just check the calendar to see where we are going to be!    

I welcome each and every one of you to come and play with us!  We are always on the lookout for new athletes and there are plenty of volunteer jobs for people who just want to be close to the action.  These can even qualify as community services hours for those students that are in need of them.

When the weather is decent we have a practice field that you will find many of us at as often as we can be.

Please feel free to e-mail us with any questions or comments that you might have and I welcome you all to come to any of our events…even if it’s just to say hello and share a pint!
