What do all of you think about having a little fenway league ages 13 and up? You could have a draft for players and 30 teams with 12 players on each team. Call me crazy but this could be a huge thing. It could mean professional wiffle ball. Some people would be really serious about it. The owners of Little Fenway could decide if they wanted to pay the players for playing and have crowds to make up the money. after a few years, this might be huge in Vermont History! |

if you had a league i would leave the southern vermont wiffleball league in bennington vermont just to play in it. when i was younger me and my best friend and current team mate played behind his house and we called it baby fenway because you had to hit the ball 90ft and over a house. the field you have built is amazing and i would love to be able to play on it some day soon |

What is Little Wrigley?
Little Wrigley is a unique 1/4th scale replica of Chicago's Wrigley Field in the backyard of Pat & Beth O'Connor's house in Essex, Vermont.
It was built in 2007 (modeled after Little Fenway) to increase tournament capacity and is used exclusively for Wiffle ball games. Several major charity fund-raising tournaments are held at Little Wrigley every year.
To date, over $1.2 Million has been raised for various charities. Smiles, laughter, and warm memories are the name of the game at Little Wrigley.
