WELCOME TO THE HOME OF
FALCONS BASEBALL
|
Welcome to the home of Bishop Ford Central Catholic High School’s Baseball team, a member of the New York City C.H.S.A.A. “A” Division. Bishop Ford’s academics have been synonymous with excellence since its beginning in 1962, and the tradition of excellence also holds true in the Baseball Program. The baseball team’s success over the years has been a direct result of continuous support from the school’s administration, athletic department and alumni. All of Bishop Ford’s baseball players are truly dedicated hard-working student-athletes.
The Falcons play their home games at the legendary Parade Ground fields, located at the intersection of Coney Island and Caton Avenues. The same baseball diamonds that twenty-six major leaguers have groomed their skills; John Halama, Joe Torre, Willie Randolph, John Franco, Manny Ramirez, Shawon Dunston and Lee Mazzilli, just to name a few.
