2014 Baseball Buddies Wrap Up- A Challenger League Program

Posted by Paul Bianco on Nov 01 2014 at 05:00PM PDT
We are very excited to share with you news of the successful return of Baseball Buddies, a program organized by North Miami Beach Little League (“NMBLL”).  Baseball Buddies pairs experienced NMBLL players with youth who have special needs or haven’t had the confidence to participate in organized baseball in the past.

 

This program occurred on September 21, September 28, October 5, October 12, October 19, and November 2, with each session typically running 1.5 hours. We focused on skills, drills, and teaching the basics of the game of baseball.  Also, we had informal game play in order to allow players to experience the thrill of participating in a team sport. 

 

Every child was assigned a “buddy”, typically an 11-17 year old current or former member of NMBLL who loves baseball and wants to help others learn to love the game as well.  Our goal is to accommodate every child if possible.

 

Thank you for all the players and buddies who participated this year.  You have made our 2014 sessions our sixth successful year!

 

Although we have concluded our 2014 sessions, if you are interested in having your child participate as a player for our next sessions or if you have any questions, please contact us at NMBbaseballbuddies@gmail.com.
