Ultimate Goal:

Provide a fun environment for our interns to learn as much as possible about a Professional Baseball operation by placing them in a position to gain experience and knowledge which they will be able to take with them throughout their career. We aim to develop college students into young professionals by giving them a great experience with the Lincoln Saltdogs.

Who we are:

Lincoln professional baseball is a family-oriented organization, dedicated to providing the community with an exciting product that promotes everything great about the game and safeguards the dignity of the players. Lincoln Professional Baseball is committed to fostering youth involvement with the game, and maintaining a wholesome, fun-filled environment that heightens fan anticipation about spending a memorable, affordable day at the ballpark. Lincoln Professional Baseball endeavors to always show fan respect and nurture spectator input that enhances value, enjoyment and civic pride. Additionally, player interaction with the community is encouraged to further their off-field personal and professional growth. Owned by NEBCO, Inc., the implementation of Lincoln professional baseball is a part of entertaining Nebraska, one of the cornerstones of NEBCO’s mission of Building Nebraska.
