The New York Boulders are a professional baseball team based in Pomona, New York. The Boulders compete in the Frontier League (FL) as a member of the East Division in the Atlantic Conference. The team plays its home games at Clover Stadium, a stadium they share with the St. Thomas Aquinas College Spartans of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). They are one of three Frontier League franchises located in the New York metropolitan area; the others being the New Jersey Jackals and Sussex County Miners.
Founded in 2011 by the Rockland Professional Baseball, LLC, the Boulders are one of the original teams that competed in the Can-Am League before its 2015 expansion, along with the New Jersey Jackals, Québec Capitales and Trois-Rivières Aigles.
The "Boulders" name refers to Rockland County's plethora of boulders in its landscape. The team's primary color, blue, alludes to the former Brooklyn Dodgers (now Los Angeles Dodgers), which used Bear Mountain State Park for spring training during World War II. The red honors the neighboring Rockland County Fire Training Center. Boulder Bird is the official team mascot and "Disco" Seth Cantor is the team's play-by-play announcer.
