Description

On the turn of the 20 th century, Stamford used to be fast turning into an industrial powerhouse, quickly earning its nickname of “The City That Works.” As manufacturing boomed and drew thousands of immigrants to the town, sports clubs formed at an equally rapid pace. Stamford’s large and thriving industrial league provided a means for the ones working six-day weeks to let off steam productively and enjoyably. Stamford Sports covers the history of sports in Stamford from its earliest baseball and basketball teams within the 1890s during the burgeoning of sports of all kinds for everybody, brought on by the passage of Title IX within the 1970s.
