The Major League Baseball Players Alumni Association (MLBPAA) was formed in 1982 in order to promote the game of baseball, raise money for charity, inspire and educate youth through positive sport images and protect the dignity of the game through former players. A nonprofit organization, the MLBPAA establishes a place where a player's drive for excellence and achievement on the field can continue long after they take their last steps off the professional diamond.

Headquartered in Colorado Springs, Colo., the MLBPAA's membership currently has more than 8,600 members composed of former and current Major League players, umpires, managers, coaches, front-office personnel and fans. President Brooks Robinson guides the MLBPAA with Bob Boone, George Brett, Robin Yount, Carl Erskine and Al Kaline presiding as Vice Presidents.

The vast majority of former big leaguers have gravitated to the Alumni Association, including Hall of Famers, All-Stars, Cy Young Award winners and Gold Glove recipients. Former players hoping to give back to the game find the Alumni Association to be a vital, constructive instrument providing a vehicle for them to be involved in charity and community causes nationwide. Alumni members understand that as one of only several thousand living major league players they belong to a select group that has the unique ability to advance and encourage the sport of baseball and the values associated with the game.
