History

Suburban Athletics Inc. was started in 1964 by Ernie Lehl and George Strohmeyer to give children outside the Neenah city limits an opportunity to play organized baseball. At that time, the Neenah City Baseball League was part of the Neenah Park and Recreation department. The townships included in Suburban Athletics were: Menasha, Neenah, Vinland, and Clayton.

In the first year, there were 8 teams made up of boys ages 9 - 12.

Around 1974 the league was expanded to include a girl's softball program.

During the 1980's, the league was further expanded to include Tee Ball and Coach Pitch leagues.
