Buddy Ball - Baseball for Warren Special Needs ages 5-20

Warren Baseball Softball, Inc. is proud to announce the second season of Buddy Ball. Buddy Ball is a co-ed baseball program that provides children with disabilities an opportunity to play baseball in a safe, fun environment. The program caters to every type of disability to ensure that every player is as comfortable as possible during the games. About Buddy Ball The Bambino Buddy Ball Division was established by Babe Ruth Baseball as a program for children with special needs. The most fundamental goal of Buddy Ball is to give everyone a chance to play, regardless of disability. Buddy Ball features volunteer ���buddies��� who help by assisting the players when needed. Today, more than 30,000 players participate in a Buddy Ball type league nationwide. Eligibility: Special needs children between the ages of 5 and 20, from Warren and any surrounding towns that do not already offer Buddy Ball, are eligible to play Buddy Ball. Each player is assigned to their own ���Buddy��� who helps out their player throughout every game. Game Information: Games will be on Saturdays, beginning sometime in April, from 11 AM to 12 PM on the Warren Municipal Fields (behind the library on Bardy Rd). No practices, just pregame warm-up. Soft baseballs, bats and uniforms will be provided. Please bring your own glove if you have one. Players are welcome to march in WBSI���s Opening Day Parade and the Memorial Day Parade if they so choose. Registration: To register a player, go to warrenbaseballsoftball.com.
