Our 2019 season officially starts tomorrow at CT Day at Colt Meadows in Hartford. All five Connecticut vintage teams plus the Eckford BBC of Brooklyn will participate. While rain is expected overnight tonight it should clear up early Saturday morning well before the first games at 11:00am. It will be cloudy but temperatures should be in the 60’s. Should be a lot of fun!
