On a warm April day in 1987 five high school friends joined together in a
small house
on Virginia Avenue in Charlottesville, VA to draft the original five teams
in what would
later be called the Smith Mountain Lake Baseball Association. The SMLBA is
one of the oldest
rotissiere leagues in the world. The league is an AL only, auction league,
with ten teams.
The team owners, all of whom grew up in Charlottesville, for many years
spent the last week of
each summer camping and boating at Smith Mountain Lake, hence the league
name.
