Brooklyn Royal Giants all-time roster
The following is the list of players on the Brooklyn Royal Giants all-time roster . These are Brooklyn Royal Giants players who appeared in at least one game for the Royal Giants from 1905 to 1942.
On-going research continuously discovers unreported or misreported games (and the affected players), while some games and players may be lost forever. Therefore, some Negro league players' affiliations will likely remain incomplete and possibly disputed.
