| Description | The New York Times, Sept. 7, 2005, has an article on the start of a junior baseball league in Iraq. The originator was a 40 year old Iraqi who said he witnessed American dam workers playing baseball when he was a kid living near Sulaymaniyah. Presumably this refers to workers of the American company that built and maintained the Darbandikhan Dam, in Sulaymaniyah province. The article goes on to say he started a junior baseball league in 2003. The Iraq baseball federation was founded in 2004. |
