The Dixie League was a Class D level baseball league that played in the 1916 and 1917 seasons, with teams based in the US states of Alabama and Georgia.
The Dixie League played a full season in 1916, with the Dolthan team winning the championship with a 38–22 record in the six–team league. In its second season, the league folded on July 4, 1917 with the Moultrie Packers in 1st place.[1]
Sixteen years later, the Dixie League was reformed, with teams based in the western Gulf Coast states. It played in the 1933 season[2] before splitting into two Class C level leagues, the East Dixie League and West Dixie League in 1934.[citation needed][3][4]
