MEMPHIS TRAVELERS BIO
THE FIRST MEMPHIS TRAVELERS TEAM WAS ORIGINALLY FOUNDED IN THE 1960's BY OTIS SANDERS. IN 1972, THE MEMPHIS TRAVELERS BASEBALL ASSOCIATION, INC. WAS FOUNDED BY BENNY COLE, JONNY MARTIN AND PHIL CLARK. AS THESE THREE ARE RECOGNIZED AS FOUNDERS, THERE WERE MANY PEOPLE WHO MADE THE MEMPHIS TRAVELERS A WINNING ORGANIZATION DEVELOPING PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES AND POSITIVELY INFLUENCING YOUNG MEN OVER THE DECADES.
MEMPHIS TRAVELERS ASSOCIATION, INC IS A NON-PROFIT, EQUAL OPPORTUNITY ASSOCIATION WHICH CONTINUES TO TEACH OUR PLAYERS NOT ONLY THE SKILLS TO PLAY BASEBALL ON A COMPETITIVE LEVEL, BUT EQUIPS EACH PLAYER WITH LIFE SKILLS SUCH AS INTEGRITY, RESPECT, AND THE VALUES OF TEAMWORK AND LIFE LONG FRIENDSHIPS.
