About the Northwoods League

The Northwoods League is the largest organized summer collegiate baseball league in North America, with 22 teams spread across the Upper Midwest. Known for its professional-level operations, strong fan support, and consistent MLB pipeline, the Northwoods League has produced over 250 MLB players. The league runs a longer season than most summer leagues, giving players more at-bats and innings against high-level competition.

What It's Like

Most teams are in small to mid-sized Midwestern towns with strong community support. Host families are standard. Many teams draw 1,000+ fans per game. The longer season (72+ games) means a true professional schedule.
