Atlantic League Independent

There have been many independent leagues in this country that have tried to model themselves after the Atlantic League and some competitive leagues have even considered serving as a "minor league" to this minor league. The reason? Quality Double-A ballparks in well researched markets have made the Atlantic League perhaps the steadiest and most solid of all of the independent systems. Teams come and go often in many of these other systems but not here. An Atlantic League team more often than not usually means a successful one as well. Led by its founder Frank Boulton since its beginning in 1998, the Atlantic League continues to be what every other independent organization aspires to.
