About the Ghost Players Program

The Ghost Players Program was born from a simple belief: whenever two people play catch, they are connected to every player who came before them.

Inspired by the wonder of Field of Dreams, the program celebrates baseball as more than a game. It is a living thread connecting grandparents to grandchildren, former players to new players, and communities to their history.

Across generations, countless people learned life lessons through catch. Patience. Confidence. Commitment. Love.

The Ghost Players Program creates opportunities for families and communities to experience that connection firsthand.

Through community catch events, storytelling experiences, historical displays, vintage baseball demonstrations, glove donations, and youth engagement activities, participants are reminded that baseball history does not live only in museums. It lives in people.

Every glove has a story.

Every ball has a memory.

Every catch carries something forward.

Some participants may play catch with a parent.

Others may play catch with a child.

Some may simply remember someone who once stood fifty feet away and said, "Let's have a catch."

The Glove of the Game Foundation believes baseball can build stronger families, healthier communities, and lasting memories.

The Ghost Players Program exists to preserve those moments and create thousands more.
