If you are interested, the cost per player will be $150 and teams will be required to have a minimum of 12 players.

About the John Gambs EMBL
FACTS ABOUT THE JOHN GAMBS EAST METRO BASEBALL LEAGUE (EMBL)
- The EMBL was founded in 2003 by the late John Gambs to provide adult baseball on the east side of Atlanta for adults. We are a non-profit organization and we try our best to benefit the schools and the communities that support us. It's part of the national Men's Senior Baseball League. We only have one age division for this 2022 season. We will plan to move back to two age divisions (18+ & 30+) next year as our participation increases.
-
Most of our games are played on week nights (Mon-Fri), at the American Legion Field in Conyers. Games start at 7:30 PM.

How fast are the pitchers? In the 30+division, most throw in the 70's or slower; in the 18+ in the 80's.
Bats? Wood bats only in the 30+ division; BBCOR or wood in the 18+ division. No metal bats (BESR) allowed.
This is not a "win-at-all-costs" league. The joy of playing baseball and the comraderie is what it's all about!
