Colt League

The Colt League is available to all ballplayers interested in baseball while attending high school.*  This league allows boys to continue to play baseball in a highly competitive, very exciting, and fun structure, whether they currently play on the high school team or engage in other sports and activities at school.  The Colt League allows kids to continue the friendships and challenges experienced during their earlier baseball careers, whether participating in LZBSA or other leagues.

Our league will partner and play in the PCBS (Palatine) COLT league (teams from Barrington, Hoffman Estates, Palatine, and Schaumburg.  This allows our players to continue to play together against outstanding competition from other towns.  Fall Season consists of 7 to 8 weekend games.  Summer Season consists of about 14 regular season games (usually on the weekends with a few weekday games) and there is a year-end tournament in early August with all teams participating.  This format provides a competitive and challenging baseball experience that will benefit highly skilled and recreational ballplayers.  Whether your goal is to improve your skills to participate on high school teams, or just getting together with your friends and teammates to keep your baseball careers going, the Colt League is the place for you.

While individual coaches and players may arrange for a few practices, the focus for this league is on playing games.   The schedules generally do not conflict with other sports camps or activities conducted by the high schools over the summer.  However, we organize rosters and schedules to be flexible enough to accommodate conflicts when players have other commitments.
