Welcome to the Dukes Diamond of Dreams

The Sherwood Park Dukes invite you to join us at the Diamond of Dreams – where the students are the stars! Our Diamond of Dreams slogan was created to capture the Mission and Vision of Dukes Baseball. You will see that we are more than just baseball – we are here to develop the dreams of our youth and create opportunities for the next generation to take center stage and gain life changing opportunities. Whether on the field with the team or off the field with our Dukes Game Day Staff, we are giving college students the chance to strut their stuff!

Dukes History

The Sherwood Park Dukes were named to honor Sherwood Park’s history in baseball. In the 60’s and 70’s, Sherwood Park’s Dukes were an independent baseball team. In the 80’s and 90’s, the Dukes were Sherwood Park Minor Baseball’s Midget AAA team and one of the prominent midget baseball teams in Alberta. Former Dukes include current professional and Team Canada pitcher Mike Johnson, ex-professional pitcher and Baseball Alberta Technical Director Mark Randall, and much missed legendary Sherwood Park Coach Dave Plotsky.

In the mid 90’s, the association chose to affiliate their rep teams with the Oakland Athletics and hence became the Sherwood Park Athletics. The Athletics Green and Gold became the color of the day. Dukes will wear the same Green and Gold to reflect the close association with SPMBA and to carry on the colors of baseball in Sherwood Park.

We celebrate all our Sherwood Park Dukes, present and future, as we create the Diamond of Dreams in the Western Major Baseball League.
