Event Details
The mission of the Miracle League of Las Vegas is to provide children and adults with cognitive and/or physical challenges in the greater Las Vegas community the opportunity to play baseball in a safe and nurturing environment. Our games are played with soft, foam balls and foam or plastic bats, on a soft, spongy playing surface, allowing our special athletes to enjoy physical and mental stimulation, and build greater self-esteem. We even have misters in the dugouts, for when it gets a bit warm out there! The Miracle League of Las Vegas gives players a sense of team pride and inclusion just like their able-bodied peers that play the game of baseball, and many players in our program have shown improved dexterity, mobility, and verbal and social skills. We strive at all times to make Miracle League fun for all, and to help our “differently-abled” athletes feel just like major league ball players!
