Turks Announce 2024 Schedule

The VBL and Harrisonburg Turks have just announced the 2024 Season Schedule. You can view the schedule below or visit our calendar at harrisonburgturks.com/calendar.

General Information

This season is turning out to be very exciting because the Valley Baseball League has decided to break up the league into two divisions again this year. The Harrisonburg Turks will be residing in the South Division. We will be competing against the Tomsox, Lumberjacks, Generals, Braves, and Cavaliers. With this change travel time has been greatly reduced between ball parks and we encourage all for our faithful fans to join us at all our games, both home and away. You can find addresses to the other ball parks on our VBL Ballparks page or by clicking the event on our calendar.

 

What does this mean for playoffs?

As the reining champions this year I am sure all of our fans are curious as to how playoffs will work. Both divisions will have a wildcard playoff game to determine who gets the wildcard. Then divisions will begin their three day division series (July 27-29, pending weather of course). Once the North and South Division Champions are determined, those winners will play in the VBL Playoffs. We look forward to seeing what the Turks can do this season.

Foster Care Night


July 14, 2024

Join us as we work to bring awareness to foster care in our area. When children are removed from their homes out of concern for their welfare, they are usually brought to the child welfare services office to await placement with a foster family. This wait can take several hours to nearly a full day. These children often have nothing with them and are scared, lonely, hungry, dirty, and in desperate need of love and support.

 

This year we are helping Isaiah 117 House bring awareness to the need in foster care and change the way foster care begins. Their mission is to reduce trauma for children awaiting placement, lighten the load for child welfare service, and ease the transition for foster families. Come out to our game on July 14th @ 7:30pm and learn how you can help ease the pain of children in foster care.
For more information on Isaiah 117 House, please visit https://isaiah117house.com/.

Alzheimer's Night


July 19, 2024

The Harrisonburg Turks Organization is joining #11 Jason Cheifetz and the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s® in bringing awareness to Alzheimer's disease. In 2022, Jason recorded 72 strikeouts in his High School’s senior season and donated $5 per every strikeout to honor his Grammy who died that year to Alzheimer’s. In 2023, he struck out 20 batters for the Harrisonburg Turks in the Valley League. This year he is pledging to do it again as he spends his summer pitching for the Turks!
There are currently 7 million Americans living with Alzheimer’s Disease and 11 million unpaid caregivers. Alzheimer’s isn’t stopping and neither are we. By participating in the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s®, Jason is raising funds and awareness to advance the fight against this disease — funds that allow the Alzheimer’s Association® to provide 24/7 care and support while accelerating critical research.
