The Nashville Elite Giants were a professional baseball team that played in the Negro Leagues. The team was established by Thomas T. Wilson as the semi-pro Nashville Standard Giants in 1921. The team was later renamed the Elite Giants. In 1931, Wilson moved the team from Nashville, Tennessee to Cleveland, Ohio, renamed the team the Cleveland Cubs and joined the first Negro National League. The following season, the Negro National League collapsed, so the team moved back to Nashville, changed the name back to the Elite Giants and joined the Negro Southern League. When the second incarnation of the Negro National League was formed in 1932 the Giants joined it for the following two seasons. In 1935, the team moved to Columbus, Ohio and became the Columbus Elite Giants. In 1937, the team moved to Washington D.C. and became the Washington Elite Giants. The team's final move came in 1938 when they moved to Baltimore, Maryland and became the Baltimore Elite Giants. The team disbanded after the 1950 season.
