Challenger Little League® provides the opportunity for disabled girls and boys to participate in the organized game of baseball.   These children get to do something that “non-disabled kids” take for granted … being part of a social event in an accepting place. 

We are an all-volunteer organization.   No one … Coaches, Executive Director, Corporate Officers … receives a salary or compensation.
