The Sports Program has been a part of ILWU Membership Services for over 40 years. In the early days of building the union, some of the best baseball players were sugar plantation workers who supported the ILWU. These ballplayers would participate in camp and other leagues, talking with other team members and spreading the word about the benefits of unionism. Today, the ILWU Sports Program continues to provide an arena for members to meet and make friends with other members statewide that share their interest in sports.
