To our amazing community,
As the leaves begin to change colors and the air turns crisp, it’s time to embrace the beauty of fall. The Vernon Hills Community Baseball and Softball program wish to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our amazing community for another successful season. Thank you to our players, parents, family members, coaches, umpires and volunteers. This season would not be possible without your support, enthusiasm and commitment.
The VHCBS would also like to give a special thank you to the Village of Vernon Hills - Government and the Vernon Hills Park District for their invaluable partnerships in allowing us to utilize the Vernon Hills Athletic Complex and other fields throughout the community. We are so fortunate to be able to call our award winning parks program home, and serve as a backdrop for highlight reel catches, homeruns, great wins, and memories year after year! Our teams, along with those visiting, are fortunate to play on the best fields in Chicagoland!
As 2024 comes to a close, we have worked hard to “winterize” the VHAC fields and get everything ready for the colder months ahead. Our sheds and storage containers have been cleaned up and organized and all equipment secured away ready to be put to use again next season.
The VHCBS wish all the best for those who are aging out of our program and look forward to following your post-Cougars high school baseball and softball careers.
Now it’s time to start training for 2025! We look forward to seeing everyone back on the fields in the spring.
Go Cougars!
Warm regards,
The Vernon Hills Community Baseball & Softball Board

Over the past year our community has lost several members to cancer. To recognize not only those we lost this year but over time we have decided to start a Cougar Cancer Awareness event. By purchasing one or more of these wristbands ($5 each) VHCBS will be donating the proceeds to two cancer organizations, Sloan Kettering and St. Jude's. Be on the lookout for more info about events we are planning this upcoming season to recognize those that we have lost.
All orders will be given to your coach.
**Quantities are limited. Please order ASAP to ensure your order can be filled.**
On behalf of the VHCBS organization we would like to thank you for your support!
