Naperville Little League Championships are approaching
The Naperville Little League City Championship games will be played on Saturday, June 27th, with five divisions crowning champions throughout the day. Highlights of each of the five City Championship games will be made available on the NCTV17 website.
Naperville Little League is open to boys and girls in 1st through 8th grade for each particular school year. The Little League boundaries encompass all the kids inside districts 203 and 204, including children in Naperville and parts of Bolingbrook, Lisle, and Aurora.
For several years, the Naperville Little League has partnered with the Chicago White Sox, who provide uniforms and hats to the players featuring White Sox logos. The partnership also allows for more skills training availability and night game opportunities for the participating teams.
