Team Bio[edit]

The Harrisonburg Turks joined the Valley Baseball League in 1950. When the VBL folded in 1953 the Turks joined the Virginia Mountain League. The following year the VBL was back for good and the Turks have been members ever since. They play at Veterans Memorial Park on the campus of James Madison University in Harrisonburg, VA.
