SPECIAL POPULATION PROGRAMS

Challenger Little League Baseball

Challenger Baseball started in Broward County in 1990. The Challenger program is open to children with any disability. Thanks to the help of coaches, assistant coaches and “buddies”, all our players get to hit, field and get around the bases. Challenger is a non-competitive environment with the goal of all our players getting a chance to be part of a team sport and having a great time. Our target age group is 5-22 years old. We have a junior division from 5/12 years old and a senior division of 13+. Our games are Sunday afternoons at 3:30pm – 5:15pm from March- May. We play at fields throughout Broward County. Challenger is an all-volunteer organization and 100% of donated money goes directly to the program. REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN! Contact Randy Hibshman (954) 345-9329, rhibshman@bellsouth.net.

PARKLAND BUDDY SPORTS

This program was created to eliminate the cultural, social and emotional barriers that children and young adults with special needs face when participating in recreational activities. Through shared partnership, both players and volunteers (“Buddies”) learn patience, tolerance, and the ability of one person to change the life of another. Players and volunteers simultaneously enjoy participating in a program where there are “No Limits.” (954) 445-0502. info@parklandbuddysports.com. www.parklandbuddysports.com.
