Baseball
Baseball has been played in Norway since our Civil War veterans
got back home from the war and taught the game - which they
learned from New York soldiers - to the boys back home... and
the love affair between Norway and Baseball was born.
Norway’s passion for baseball is exemplified by our: four major
leaguers, seventeen minor leaguers, dozens of college players
and many more who played town-team ball.
In 1965, Norway High School won its first State Championship.
In 1991, the streak would end at 20 when our school closed. A
Movie was made about that Final Season and we celebrate
our town’s baseball history at the Baseball Museum of Norway.

In August of 2015, the Benton Community School District sold the
ball park to the City of Norway. The Norway Baseball Association
was formed to see to the: maintenance, improvement and use of
the field and facilities.
