It’s Official; GOOD NEWS: Disney+ to Release Four-Year Documentary Bananaland on the Savannah Bananas’ Journey Through Petitt Cup Championships
Disney+ has officially confirmed the release of *Bananaland*, a groundbreaking four-year documentary chronicling the Savannah Bananas’ incredible journey as a collegiate baseball powerhouse in the Coastal Plain League (CPL). The multi-part series will follow the team’s rise to Petitt Cup championship glory, offering fans a rare and emotional look at the foundation of what would become one of the most exciting sports stories of the decade.
Filmed over four seasons, *Bananaland* captures the grit, determination, and creativity that defined the Bananas long before they became global sensations through their Banana Ball World Tours. From the intense grind of summer collegiate baseball to the electric nights at Grayson Stadium, viewers will experience firsthand how a group of passionate young athletes, guided by bold leadership, transformed a struggling program into a championship-winning team.
The documentary will highlight the Bananas’ Petitt Cup victories, the unforgettable players who made them possible, and the community that rallied behind the club. Interviews with coaches, players, and loyal fans will paint a vivid picture of the spirit that made Savannah baseball so unique. Alongside the competition, *Bananaland* will also explore the origins of the team’s now-famous showmanship — a spark that would later ignite the birth of Banana Ball.
Disney+ executives described the project as more than just a sports documentary, calling it “a story of resilience, joy, and the unshakable belief that baseball can be fun again.” With its blend of drama, heart, and history, *Bananaland* promises to resonate with audiences of all ages.
For Bananas fans, this series is both a celebration of the past and a reminder of how one small team in Savannah captured the world’s imagination.
