COMMUNITY. CONNECTION. COMPETITION
The Chai Story.


Where Competition Meets Community
Camp Chai Leagues is built for players of all ages—youth and adults—who love the game and the community that comes with it. Our leagues emphasize friendly competition, strong sportsmanship, and meaningful connections, creating an environment where athletes can grow, compete, and have fun both on and off the field.
​
Beyond sports, Camp Chai Leagues is also a hub for local businesses to connect with an engaged and active community. Through a variety of sponsorship levels, businesses have the opportunity to gain visibility, support youth and adult programming, and be part of something that brings people together. Whether you’re playing, cheering, or sponsoring, Camp Chai Leagues is where competition meets community.

Founder & Owner
Sammy Schwartz
Sammy Schwartz is the founder and owner of Camp Chai Leagues in Chicago, an organization he created to bring kids in the community together through the power of sports. With a passion for teamwork, connection, and positive competition, Sammy saw an opportunity to build a space where kids could play a variety of sports while forming real friendships along the way. His vision goes beyond winning games—Camp Chai Leagues is about confidence, sportsmanship, and a sense of belonging. Under Sammy’s leadership, the league has become a fun, welcoming environment where kids can stay active, compete in a friendly way, and grow both on and off the field.

While not fulfilling his dream of running Camp Chai Leagues & Camp Chai Summer Camp, Sammy and his wife Eliana live in West Rogers Park, and enjoy visiting new Chicago kosher restaurants, watching sports, and spending time with family and friends.
