The "Warrior" Baseball League

The Penn Township Athletic Association is proud to announce the development of The "Warrior" Baseball League.

The "Warrior" Baseball League is for boys and girls with physical and/or mental challenges who are between the ages of 5 and 18 (or up to 22 if still enrolled in high school). The "Warrior Baseball League is dedicated to helping children with a disability to develop and achieve their full potential; physically, mentally, and socially. The "Warrior" Baseball league is free of charge to everyone who participates.

Teams will be organized according to ability rather than age, and can include as many as 12 players who participate in a T-Ball type format. Each player will be given a T-shirt and a hat, which will promote being part of a team. The games are non-competitive in nature and will be 3 innings in length.

Every player bats in every inning, and the side is retired when the offense has batted through the roster. Players are encouraged to bat and make plays on their own, but will have a buddy assigned to them to provide guidance while on the field and in the dugout.

The program employs a "buddy" system so that help is always available on the field if needed. The role of a "buddy" is to help his/her player with batting, running, catching and throwing. Volunteer buddies will experience first-hand what it means to give back to the community as they support and encourage their players and the team. Buddies should be of high school age or older. Students in high school will earn "community service" hours for their participation.

The "Warrior" Baseball League's goal is to allow children with varying types of disabilities the opportunity to play America's favorite pastime - baseball. The "Warrior" Baseball League allows boys and girls with a disability a chance to play baseball as part of a team in an organized league.

Registration for the "Warrior" Baseball League will run through June 4, 2010. A tentative starting date for games to begin will be mid-July. Players will be notified by a phone call or email as to when the teams are formed. All games will be played at the Penn Township Municipal Park on Field #1.
