MIRACLE LEAGUE – WHAT IT IS – WHAT IT IS NOT
- Baseball league for kids of any age that do not fit into “regular” recreational leagues.
- Games are 2 innings, lasting no more than 1 hour, 7 or more games/season (fall & spring).
- All players get to bat and score at each inning.
- There are no outs and no score is kept.
- No more than 15 players/team, consisting of males and females and with a variety of ability levels and ages.
- Games played on Saturday unless there is rain, then switch to Sunday afternoon/evening.
- NO practices other than 30 minutes prior to the actual game.
- No special equipment needed, though you are welcome to bring your own and gloves are recommended.
- Uniform shirts and hats will be provided each year.
- Players will be paired with a “Buddy” to assist them on the field as well as at bat. These Buddies may or may not be the same each week.
- Buddies will protect the players at all times and give only the amount of assistance needed so that the player can be as independent on the field as possible.
- Each team will have at least one adult coach, plus there will always be multiple other Miracle League board members present at each game and on the field.
- Parents of players are encouraged to communicate the needs and any special instructions for their child to the Miracle League staff and the Buddies.
