After spending a lot of time on the design for the league website -- http://negro-league.net and adding a number of Negro League Players to the league file, I decided to go in a different direction with my online league.

Instead of having Negro League players playing in a segragated league, I decided to create a new league which allows for integration.

Unfortunately, league play will not take place in the United States. Major League Baseball will not integrate their league until 1947, seventeen years after the start of my new league.

The league which commences play in 1930 will play its games in the little island of Cuba. The league will be made up of eight teams, but I may add between two or four more franchises depending on how many players will be added to the league file.

The league will play its games during the winter and as such will be called, appropriately enough, the Cuban Winter League. The league file will be made up of mostly Negro League and Cuban League players in addition to a limited number of players from the Major and Minor Leagues, other Latin American Countries and Japan.

I have been working on the new website. You can check out what I've done by clicking the following link:
