Looking back over the century Baseball first began being played in Taiwan while the island was under Japanese rule, with the first team formed at what is now Taipei Municipal Jianguo High School in 1906. The first team composed entirely of Taiwanese students was formed 23 years later at Taichu First Senior High School in the city now known as Taichung.
