History
In 1946 local community leaders had a dream about establishing professional baseball on the Kitsap Peninsula. The result was the Bremerton Bluejackets, the county’s first and only professional baseball team. In 2004 another group of baseball entrepreneurs led by Rick Smith, brought the Kitsap Bluejackets and became an inaugural member of the prestigious West Coast League. Now, in 2015, a new partnership group hopes to breath renewed life into the franchise and bring the community together around what may be Kitsap County’s most important sports team.
