Baseball Season Is All Year!
The WAA is a not-for-profit organization comprised of up to a 12-member all-volunteer board and is an affiliate of the Warrenville Park District. The WAA’s mission is to provide high quality youth baseball programs to Warrenville and surrounding communities. Emphasis at all levels is placed on sportsmanship, team spirit, and baseball fundamentals. It is the belief of the WAA that baseball programs serve our community by creating a place for our children to have fun, become more physically fit, learn good sportsmanship, and learn basic concepts of teamwork -- including tolerance of others -- and recognition of different skill levels. Some of our major activities throughout the year include the season opener and league banquet, All-Star games and the annual 4th of July Cerny Series. We also fund travel team tournaments, capital improvements, and general field maintenance via our procurement and management of Hotel Funds from the City of Warrenville. The league is open to boys and girls between the ages of 5-14. Practices usually begin around April 1 with games starting April 30. Games are played throughout the week and continue until June. Playoffs for Pinto, Mustang, Bronco, and Pony leagues end the first week of July. In addition to the spring season, we also offer a "Fall Ball" season. We will be sending out more information on registration for fall ball in the near future. You can volunteer your time for special events that support our program; please contact the WAA at volunteer@waasports.com. Leagues fill up fast so get in early to ensure your spot. For more information on registration or for baseball related inquiries please contact: Robert Schwichtenberg, rjs78@hotmail.com, 630.723.8425

Planned Financial Independence Co.
On November 9, the Warrenville Park District celebrated the 10th anniversary of Pickleball. This interactive and low-impact sport provides many health and social benefits. Tony Malia will forever be known for introducing the sport of Pickleball to the Warrenville community and we are thankful for his dedication to the Warrenville Park District athletic programs. The resurfacing project for the gym floor at the Recreation Center was completed in September. This included a complete sanding of the original 17-year-old floor, fresh lining, new seal and the addition of our logo at center court. On October 21, FitnessNOW hosted a Boot Camp for Breast Cancer fundraiser. Through registration fees and donations, together we raised $275 which was donated to the LivingWell Cancer Resource Center here in Warrenville.
