Draft order was determined at random using an online randomization program. The initial league draft was 36 rounds and in a snake style draft. This league will make use of virtual face to face play when regular face to face is not possible. GABL will use the APBA Basic Game Manual (copyright 2013). This is a continuous ownership league once a player is drafted, he is property of that team until traded, cut, or is no longer carded by APBA.
The rules our league will use are enclosed in the following pages of this constitution. The rules of the league are designed to allow managers an opportunity to play APBA Baseball in a competitive and friendly enviroment, all the while making sure that there is ease and simplicity in playing.
The league would then continue play going backwards throught the seasons (1980 to 1901). The intent of the league was to get a virtual APBA card league together that started with the 1980RR APBA baseball card set. The Great American Baseball League (GABL) was created in 2020 by Ken Schulz.
