The Windy City Prospects collegiate team is based out of our facility in Northfield where our indoor workouts are held. Our home field is Community Park West in Glenview. We are not just a summer college team. We have put together a program to help our players improve from when they return from the spring semester until they leave in the fall.
Away games are played all around the Chicago Suburbs. We try to play 35-50 games throughout the summer depending on the weather. We play in the Chicago Metro Collegiate Summer Baseball League. The League is formed from teams from the suburbs of Chicago.
Action Packed Seasons and Tournaments
The league has 30 games, plus a tournament style playoff. Teams can advance to the following National tournaments: All American Amateur Baseball Association (AAABA), National Amateur Baseball Federation (NABF), and the Continental Amateur Baseball Association (CABA).
We have very full seasons typically beginning the end of May for 8 weeks, with the league tournament in the first week in August.
Player Programs & Professional Coaching
In addition to game play, we put together personalized throwing programs and hitting programs to help the individual player improve. Players will be able to use the indoor facility to get their work in. Coaches will be tracking their data and using video to reinforce what we are working on.
We have a great staff to work with the players and help them reach their goals. Chris Wido is the head coach and will assist in all facets of the game. Wilson Batista and Dustin DeMars will work with hitters and defense. Jake Dahlberg and Peter Sikaras will help out with the pitchers and the throwing programs. Check out our Coaches page here.
We are looking for players who are OBSESSED with getting better. We want players whose only goal is to improve their game before going back to school. Not only do we play multiple games a week, we also have extra time slots weekly for players to get additional work in with our professional coaches.
College Recruiting & Transfer Assistance
For players looking to transfer schools, we handle that as well. From recruiting videos to contacting colleges to working out the best scholarships, it is our job to prepare you to be at your best when fall ball begins and help you find the best opportunity.
