Tar Heel League

The Tar Heel League was a mid-20th century Class D professional minor baseball league, based in North Carolina in the United States. It operated during the full seasons of 1939, 1940 and 1953, and from the opening of the season through June 21, 1954. The first incarnation of the league began and ended the 1939 season with six clubs, but the following year saw the Shelby Nationals and — one third of the Tar Heel League — drop out on July 19, 1940. The entire league then shut down for 1941 and through World War II.
