Chicago Warriors Baseball boasts the largest concentration of Chicago's travel baseball players in the city. Our winter and in-season schedules are tailored around city school (public and private) calendars. Suburban clubs and city clubs who primarily draw players from the suburbs cannot tailor schedules around city family's needs.
Chicago Warriors Baseball is primarily a City of Chicago baseball club. We understand the needs of city baseball families and our training facility and practice fields are on the city of Chicago's northside. Our players attend city schools in Chicago. Nearly all northside of Chicago high school baseball rosters are filled with our players. Our players attend public and private schools throughout the city. Many Chicago high school baseball rosters carry between 20 to 50 percent of Chicago Warriors trained players. Check out our 2025 High School Rosters here.
Chicago Warriors Baseball opened a new indoor baseball training facility in 2023, which is a college level indoor training site located on northside of Chicago at 5401 N. Wolcott Ave. That same year, the Warriors formed a facilities partnership with North Park University Athletics and now both programs share training facilities. The Warriors also utilize large dome spaces including the Bo Dome in Bensenville and University of Illinois - Chicago's indoor baseball facility. Warriors Baseball has access to several Chicago Northside baseball diamonds for practices and youth games.
Chicago Warriors Baseball features a stable of experienced coaches with pro, college and high school playing and coaching experience. We also have a growing number of young coaches in their 20s who came through the Warriors Development program as players, then college players and now want to give back to the next generation of Warriors athletes. We have a well run program with experienced administration and organizational leadership and a ten-year plus history of developing players and training coaches.
Chicago Warriors train up to three times per week in our Warriors winter development program as well as weekly in season outdoor practices. Warriors teams at 11U to 14U play competitive league schedules along with a compliment of weekend tournaments. Our 15U to 18U teams play a summer schedule of competitive local and regional tournaments.
Our coaches are not parents of players who recruit their friends and pick their own teams. Our coaches are experienced baseball men and women who lead our teams and players with development and team first competitive philosophy while maintaining a coaching approach that holds players accountable. Our teams are built and evaluated at the organizational level and formed to seek the appropriate level of competition.

The Warriors start our program at 11u and build and support teams through the college level.
Players need only attend one tryout and we suggest attending as early a date as possible. Through our refined process, we are able to evaluate new players thoroughly. We do not use parents recommendations or gamechanger stats. We evaluate players holistically, including attitude, overall athleticism and baseball skills. We look for players who are seeking a program to learn and develop their game and grow as a player and competitor.
Most of all, the Chicago Warriors Baseball is right-sized: big enough to have access to quality coaches, facilities and playing opportunities, while small enough to really get to know all of our players and develop them. Most programs and high school teams are simply picking winners. We develop players, build skills and baseball athleticism.
