Opportunity Description:

Challenger Baseball is now looking for dedicated volunteers (Buddies) to help out with the program this summer.

In Challenger Baseball, “buddies” provide the most important function for the players: creating a safe environment. They also provide a mentoring role, helping their partners with catching, throwing, batting and getting around the bases. This relationship is a very rewarding experience for everyone involved: Challenger players enjoy the thrill of participation, and their buddies experience first-hand the challenges these individuals face in their daily lives. This is a great opportunity for service hours for students, as well.

We are always looking for motivated,volunteer-driven, youth leaders in our community to become Buddies once a week. If that fits your vision, we would love to hear from you as soon as possible.

 

The Time commitment is not long as the season lasts from June-Septemeber. We play on Saturdays from 10am-12pm at Peter Barry Duff Field in Paradise. If interested in volunteering, please contact Colin at challengerbaseballnl@gmail.com.
