About The Miracle League
The Miracle League began in Rockdale County, GA in 1997 when a youth baseball coach invited the disabled brother of one of his players to join the team. The following year, the Miracle League began with 35 children playing on 4 teams.
The League grew quickly. In 1999 they had over 50 children. The community recognized a need for a specialized field. In April 2000, more than 100 children began the season in just such a complex: a flat, rubberized turf field, wheelchair accessible dugouts, a concession and a picnic area. Media attention over the next few years prompted others around the country to start Miracle Leagues.
Baseball plays a bit differently in the Miracle League. All players bat each inning, all base runners are safe, every player scores a run each inning and each team always wins. The most unique difference is the "buddies": mainstream children who volunteer to help the team players. Read more at www.miracleleague.com.
