Special
Thanks to umpire Paul Amato for his continued support and dedication to our program.
Group 3

Our program is for children and adults with mental, physical and multiple disabilities. The league's focus is to give players a chance to SHINE among friends and family, have FUN, establish new FRIENDSHIPS, and enhance SELF-ESTEEM by giving them the opportunity to concentrate on their abilities rather than their disabilities. The emotional and physical benefits for the players, their families, non-handicapped peers and the community are tremendous.

What a fantastic sight it is to see the players form new friendships, improve their skills, participate as a team and all the while having A LOT of fun JUST BEING A KID!! Just as exciting is to watch parents being "Mom" and "Dad," if only for a short time, as they watch their players in ANTICIPATION and PRIDE!
