FUN FOR ALL Challenger is for boys and girls 4-30 years old, with physical, intellectual and developmental disabilities. The fundamental goal of the Challenger program is to give everyone a chance to participate regardless of their limitation. Athletes with a wide variety of disabilities including Autism, Asperger’s, Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome, spinal injuries, etc. are placed on teams with peers and coached by volunteers. Challenger is about more than playing a game. It’s about making new friends, building self-esteem and being a part of a team. To help athletes, we use a “buddy” system and pair each player with a volunteer that is at least 10 years of age or older. BASEBALL AGES 4-30 COST: $40 REGISTER BY MAY 1 TUESDAYS, 6-7 P.M. & 7-8 P.M.
