Cooperstown 6th grade Travel Baseball Tournament

Donation protected
Dear Friends & Family of Northbrook Baseball,

Our youth travel baseball team of local 6th graders aged 12 and under, will proudly be representing Northbrook in the Dreams Park Tournament in Cooperstown, New York, in June 2023. These boys are thrilled about this once-in-a-lifetime experience where they will compete and interact with teams from around the country.

Cooperstown Dreams Park is known as “The National Treasure of Youth Baseball”. It offers a summer camp experience where players will compete in a national tournament. All players, coaches, and umpires will stay on-site in the Baseball Village for six nights and seven days. The mission of Dreams Park is to provide a life-enriching experience for young boys and girls who love the game of baseball. Regardless of wins and losses, all players leave the tournament with a sense of pride, dignity, and accomplishment. Cooperstown Dreams Park inspires kids to achieve their dreams through the fundamental principles of baseball including team, hard work, and sportsmanship. While in Cooperstown, the boys will also have the opportunity to visit The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum. The boys on this team have been playing together for many years and are looking forward to their 12U season, and especially their trip to Cooperstown!

We would love your support to help us meet our fundraising goals. Donations will help cover the cost of the tournament including deposits, registration fees, umpire fees, coaches’ costs, uniforms for players and coaches, team t-shirts, trading pins, and a team banner. We truly value every donation, no matter the amount.

Because we are a community-based organization, 10% of all funds raised will be donated to a local nonprofit organization. Lost Boyz, Inc is a sports-based developmental program that works with Chicago youth in under-resourced neighborhoods. Their mission is to positively impact vulnerable Chicago youth through violence prevention, mentorship, and sports engagement.
