9U/10U is the Northern Illinois Premier Travel Baseball Program

Travel baseball program looking for players in the Hampshire, Gilbert's, Pingree Grove, Elgin, Huntley, Lake in The Hills, Carpentersville

The Northwest Vipers has been in existence for 5 years and is looking to expand the number of teams that wear the Vipers Name. We are looking to create a team that is made up of the best 9U and 10U players for the 2019 baseball season. The main reason for creating a team with this age difference is to allow those advanced 9U players to compete with 10U players creating a solid team of players from both ages. The 9U players play on the same field dimensions as the 10U and follow the same rules as they would as a 10U player. However they have the advantage of staying and playing 10U a second year or advancing with the 10U to 11U field dimensions.
The field dimensions change at 9U and 10U are the same. The dimensions again change at 11U to help player develop arm strength. The field changes one more time at 13U in preparation for high school one last time. At 14U dimensions are the same for the rest of their baseball career.
The Vipers Baseball Team also has one of the best indoor training facilities in the Northwest Suburbs with access to the best coaches in the area to provide private hitting, pitching and fielding lessons for those interested in advancing their skills. We provide more indoor time than just about any other program out there.
If your son is ready to take on the challenge that travel baseball brings then think of the Vipers as a great starting point. Our home field is one of the best kept in the area allowing for year round training. Those players that are chosen to be on the 2018 Northwest Vipers will get more than any other program can offer.
Please visit www.northwestvipers.com for more information and fill out the tryout form. We provide more than any other team in the Northwest Suburbs in the form of training and games played. We are a registered 501(C)3 organization with AAU Baseball and are registered with the state of Illinois. Others file as non for profit but charge you double what should be charged.
