The Wisconsin State League Challenge gets underway this weekend in Sheboygan.
The Wisconsin State League Challenge is a series of regular-season games all taking place over the weekend in Sheboygan. It was created in the early 2010s to add games to the league schedule while reducing the overall travel of teams, by hosting it in a neutral location. Sheboygan has hosted the majority if not all of the Challenge each season.
All challenge games are seven innings in length.
Games in Sheboygan will be split between the A’s home venue, Wildwood Park, and the nearby Field of Dreams complex.
Home teams for each game are determined by a pre-season coin flip if the two teams facing each other play an equal amount of home games against one another during the rest of the regular season. In instances where one team is on the road for a four-game weekend against another and they meet during the Challenge weekend, the team who played all road games will be the home team.
Saturday’s schedule at Wildwood Park is: 11 AM, Kenosha vs. Sheboygan (Sheboygan home team); 2 PM, Kenosha vs. Greater Green Bay (GGB home team); 5 PM, Sheboygan vs. Addison (Addison home team); 8 PM, Burlington vs. Addison (Addison home team).
Over at Field of Dreams on Saturday: 11 AM, Greater Green Bay vs. West Allis (West Allis home team); 2 PM, Lombard vs. West Allis (West Allis home team); 5 PM, Lombard vs. Burington (Burlington home team).
On Sunday at Wildwood Park: 12 PM, Greater Green Bay vs. Lombard (Lombard home team); 3 PM, Lombard vs. Sheboygan (Sheboygan home team). At Field of Dreams: 12 PM, Addison vs. West Allis (West Allis home team); 3 PM, Addison vs. Greater Green Bay (GGB home team).
