Western Springs Little League
Since its inception Western Springs Little League has been an anchor of the Western Springs community as a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide a safe, instructional and fun baseball/softball environment for boys and girls ages 5 and up. We are chartered under the umbrella of Little League International, Inc., and part of Little League Illinois District 9. Our non-profit organization operates as an all-volunteer program, and therefore relies on the support of our network of families, corporate and community sponsors and the Western Springs Park District.
WSLL provides children with the opportunity to develop the qualities of citizenship, discipline, teamwork and physical well-being through our national pastime, Baseball.
WSLL is a volunteer organization run solely through the hard work and dedication of our parents, sponsors and participants. We receive no public funding and our success is due to the efforts of our volunteers. Please consider volunteering your time in some capacity.
