History of the Cheltenham and Prahran Baseball Clubs
The Club’s home is the Kingston Heath Reserve, Farm Rd, Cheltenham, where Summer and Winter sections of the club operate under an overall Board of Management.
The Club was incorporated on 6 January, 1986.
The information on the history pages is largely the result of the efforts of club stalwarts Herb Raphael (from his notes), John Ferguson and Graeme Ainscough, and later work by Stephen Campitelli.
It is a work in progress and any contributions about Cheltenham and Prahran BC history would be very welcome on cheltenhamrustlers@gmail.com
