“Every Child Deserves the Chance to Play Baseball”
Mission
Provide opportunities for children with disabilities to play Miracle League baseball, regardless of their abilities.
Promote community support and sponsorship of Miracle Leagues
Promote the construction of special facilities that meet the unique needs of Miracle League Players, their families and friends.
How it Works
This custom-designed venue incorporates a cushioned synthetic turf that accommodates wheelchairs and other walking assistance devices, while helping prevent injuries. In other words, it provides a level-playing field where physically and mentally challenged children can hit, run, and catch- just like the best of them. During each Miracle League game, every child is given an opportunity to hit the ball and score a run. Miracle League team members are assigned “buddies” who assist them in hitting the ball and "running" the bases. Buddies can be fellow schoolmates, parents, college students, business leaders or anyone who wishes to volunteer their time to give a child the gift of baseball.
