From the Northwoods League’s inception in 1994, generous families and individuals have warmly offered their homes and provided welcoming food and lodging for student-athletes traveling from\u00a0far and wide.\u00a0 Numerous lifetime relationships have been forged between NWL players and their Host Families over the years and we expect more to develop in each future season.\u00a0 Graduations, weddings, and holidays have all been shared by Host Families and their NWL players.\u00a0 Children of Host Families have been fortunate enough to receive “baseball tutelage” and view NWL players as role models not available to most youth.<\/p>\n
