Youth Fall Baseball & Softball Leagues

Registration Deadline Friday, July 10 at 9:00 AM

Our fall league is a structured but relaxed environment to develop your skills while trying a variety of positions and using modified rules to keep the game moving. Teams are formed by the Mt. Prospect Park District staff and will practice once a week (on a weeknight) with one game on the weekend (8 game schedule). Age/Grade of participant is determined by what grade the child will be in for the 2026-27 school year. Each player receives a t-shirt and hat/scrunchie. Practices will begin in early to mid August. Coach/friend requests are allowed, but are NOT guaranteed. Teams do not carry over from the spring league. Volunteer Coaches are required at all divisions!
