Exeter Spitfires

Committed to the growth of adult and youth Baseball. Playing in the Westcountry Baseball League (WBL). Always seeking new players and volunteers.

in our time there.

We are also incredibly excited about making new friendships across the wider baseball community and receiving the support we need to grow our club into something glorious and spreading the word further about baseball in Exeter and the surrounding areas

[Exeter Spitfires @ExeterSpitfires]

After much deliberation, the Exeter Spitfires have decided to rejoin the BBF and compete within SWWBL in the 2025 season.
This decision has not been made or affected in any way due to personal matters, as our relationships within the WBL were always excellent and is something

[Exeter Spitfires @ExeterSpitfires]

we highly value. However, with our baseball club on the verge of potential exponential growth, we feel this would be better supported within the structure and guidance of the NGB.

We leave the WBL with a heavy heart and wish to retain the good relationships we have forged

@kayperbeats Don't suppose you fancy coming down to Exeter to cut the turf on our new diamond? we are doing it to mark the 200th birthday of Henry Chadwick who was born less than a mile away from the home plate. We have a gold shovel and everything!

[Exeter Spitfires @ExeterSpitfires]

Hi @TylerKepner 200 years after his birth in Exeter, we are cutting the turf on brand new diamond to be named after Henry Chadwick. Less than a mile away from the church in which he was baptised, would you like to help us publicise it?

[Exeter Spitfires @ExeterSpitfires]

@felixwhite @mattedcous Hi Felix - we are holding a ceremony in a couple of months to mark the 200th birthday of Henry Chadwick, and we will be cutting the turf on a new diamond to be named after him - would be great to have you involved

[Exeter City Council @ExeterCouncil]

An initiative to get more women and girls playing baseball has been declared a huge success with more than 150 people turning up for an open day in Exeter.

@ExeterSpitfires said they were thrilled with the response to the event.

@HelpMeEscape @MLB its the King George V playing fields in Exeter - although we had to postpone as travellers were on the field!

[Exeter Spitfires @ExeterSpitfires]

We would love to meet anyone who went to the @MLB London Series and wanted to come and learn more about the sport! We are playing at home next Sunday at KGV in #exeter

[British Baseball Federation @BritishBaseball]

If you love baseball, want to get involved and have been inspired by the #LondonSeries, clubs across are always looking scorers and umpires - find a club
