Homewood Baseball and Softball is one of the premier youth sports organizations in the Chicago Area. Established in 1951, our volunteer organization has grown to one of the largest Baseball, Softball, and T-ball organizations in the area. Each year over 900 kids from Homewood and beyond learn, play, compete, make friends, and make lifelong memories playing in one of our 10+ divisions of in-house baseball, softball, or t-ball. Our ballpark is nestled amongst the cottonwood trees in a forest-like setting inside the beautiful Izaak Walton Preserve. Featuring 3 fields, a batting cage, and a full service concession stand, our park is the jewel of the Chicago suburbs and a wonderful place to play or watch youth sports.Our leagues are open to all children, regardless of residency. We rely on all of our parents and volunteers to run our leagues and maintain our park. We get no assistance from any municipalities or park districts. Additionally we sponsor several part-time travel teams which compete in  leagues and tournaments across the region, and we roster all-star teams each July to compete in tournaments and possibly play towards Babe Ruth or Cal Ripken national tournaments.
