Women in Baseball Conference
The annual Women in Baseball Conference is co-sponsored with the Society for American Baseball Research (SABR) and Rockford University.
Currently in the IWBC Archive
A new exhibit was installed at the Colman Library on the Rockford University campus. The exhibit features several girls’ baseball team and tournament shirts from the IWBC collection.
The Archives team continues to engage with the Museum Committee to move work forward, plan future projects, and set policies for a brick-and-mortar location.
