Central Illinois Collegiate League
From BR Bullpen
The Central Illinois Collegiate League is the smallest of ten Summer Collegiate Baseball Leagues affiliated with the National Alliance of Collegiate Summer Baseball. Founded in 1963 as the charter member of the NCAA Certified Summer Baseball Leagues, The CICL maintained NCAA certification for 41 years before the NCAA ended their program. The CICL is one of the oldest Summer Collegiate Leagues in the country. Currently operating with only four teams, the CICL continues to provide a venue for college players who wish to develop their skills to enter the Major League Baseball Amateur Draft to play baseball in an environment of increased competition.
The CICL is partially financially funded by Major League Baseball (MLB). As a non-profit, 501c3 corporation, the CICL mostly depends on donations from individuals, businesses and foundations in the teams’ communities.
