Our Program

Since 2005 the Police Athletic League has offered players with special needs the opportunity to belong to a team and play baseball. 

PAL’s Adaptive Baseball League gives everyone a chance to play baseball regardless of their ability or disability. The league is non-competitive and involves a limited time commitment.

We offer an opportunity for children and adults with disabilities to participate fully in sports. For safety reasons, players are accompanied by a “buddy” if needed, who will help the player hit, field, and run/walk/wheel the bases.

A special group of children and adults along with their families and our volunteers benefit from this program. More than baseball is learned through the experience….There is a value in the therapeutic and socialization benefits of participating in sports. This involves the strengthening of the participant’s self-esteem, the opportunities to mainstream into other divisions of play in the future and disciplines of teamwork, sportsmanship and fair play.  Everyone will play different teams each week. Please try to arrive weekly by 4:45 so that our games can begin at 5:00. 

* If you know in advance that your child/player is unable to attend a game, please let me or your coach know so that a buddy will not be scheduled for him or her for that game. 

GUEST PITCHERS: If you know of someone who may like to pitch at a game please let me know 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to Liz or MaryAnn (contact info above)
