Description	In 1866 a Dixie club composed of university students defeated Gate City of Atlanta. The (Athens) Southern Watchman, July 17, 1867 welcomed “the advent of Base Ball Clubs in our community.” Mentions three clubs already formed, the Franklin, Adelphia, and University (obviously formed around the University of Georgia students, the original name of the school being Franklin College). The Franklin has already played an intra-squad game, among spectators who knew “nothing” about the game. Athens GA (1870 population about 4200) is about 60 miles NE of Atlanta.

Win/Loss Records As Far As We Now Know

Warning: Users should not rely on a team's won-loss record as a reflection of its "standing" among all base ball clubs. Team schedules were not balanced, and a good record against mostly weak opponents does not signify a leading club.
