Austin Area Miracle League Registration Begins!

Miracle League is a wonderful opportunities for children of all ages, abilities, and disabilities to get to play baseball. There is a no reject policy Every player is assigned a team and gets a jersey and hat.

Miracle League was designed to accommodate all. Everything is wheelchair accessible and the rubberized fields were designed to help lessen any falls.

However, in my opinion, the best part about Miracle League is that the kids gets to be ball players and the parents just get to be parents. With grandstands and a concession stand, the parents are kept off the field.

On the field, each player has a high school volunteer buddy, an “Angel in the Outfield.” Every player gets to bat each inning either on a tee or pitched to, and each player makes it to home. A PA system announces all the players. There are two innings and between the innings, they play Take Me Out the Ballgame and the Chicken Dance.
Due to the generosity of donations, there will be no registration fee this fall season.

There will also be kickball starting up in the fall as well! If you are interested in your own child playing or know some great potential buddies please see:
