The American Legion Youth Baseball Program strives to offer the best opportunity for young athletes in East-Central Illinois. As a non-profit organization with a 2011 operating budget of over $90,000, we rely heavily on local businesses and team sponsors to support, maintain and improve our park and its facilities. We are proud to offer five fields of play for ages ranging from 4-14, with a centrally located Concession Stand, a renovated A Diamond, and year-end awards for all participants. We strive to offer balanced leagues and welcome comments, ideas and suggestions at our open Board Meetings.
