Adaptive Baseball League

A program for individuals with physical and developmental challenges.  

Who can participate in the Adaptive Baseball League? 

Any individual with a physical or intellectual challenge may participate.  The Adaptive Baseball League accommodates boys and girls ages 4-18.  There is NO COST to participate in the Adaptive Baseball League!   

How does it work? 

The Adaptive Baseball League is a non-competitive program that adapts the traditional game of baseball to allow children, teens and young adults with a physical or developmental disability the opportunity to play on the same fields, using the same equipment and uniforms as their friends.  Each team will have an average of four practices and will then play approximately four games.  All players are assigned a "Buddy" to assist them through the game.  The Buddy will be in the field with them to help them field and throw if needed and they will help them bat if needed.  Some players will be able to hit from a coach pitching while others may need a tee or assistance from a buddy.  There are no "outs" and there is no score kept.  All players go through the rotation getting their turn to bat.  The average game is 60 minutes.  

When does it start? 

Practices are tentatively set to start in May with games to begin in June.  Practices/Games will be once per week.  Schedule is tentative for now as we need to ensure good field conditions which is weather dependent.  

What's the next step?
