We are located in the Northwest portion of Illinois and are part of Illinois Little League District 13. The Northwest Little League Program is a nonprofit organization, affiliated with Little League Baseball International, whose goal is building leadership, learning skills, teamwork and discipline. We take pride in bringing together boys and girls from Hampshire, Pingree Grove, parts of Gilberts and surrounding areas to learn the important things in life through playing organized baseball & softball. We encourage and inspire good sportsmanship, respect for our community and each other, strong team unity and we are focused on keeping youth sports in its proper perspective. All our volunteers are dedicated to making your child's experience a positive one. Baseball, the Great American Pastime, touches our communities, our families, our hearts, our minds, and our souls. Through baseball and softball, all is possible. The exhilaration of success, and the pain of defeat, it is through baseball and softball that life is personified. Northwest Little League is about more than wins, loses, and learning the game of baseball. Northwest Little League is about the education of our youth. Through Little League, they learn courage, loyalty, honor, integrity, and sportsmanship. For in the heart of every child, is the game of baseball and softball.
