Buddy Ball is for physically and mentally challenged boys and girls to enjoy the full benefits of youth baseball.
The Buddy Division will accommodate participants ages 6 through 18, or those who haven’t completed High School.
This is not limited to children residing in the Hilliard School District.
Rules are also modified and special equipment, as necessary, is utilized along with a “Buddy” system, to accommodate various levels of skill. The Buddies, selected volunteer youth, are charged with assisting each participant in the field and at bat. The adult coaches and assistants will demonstrate leadership with positive and constructive direction, tempered with patience and understanding. Parents should be able to sit back, relax, and cheer for their child(ren) while they are playing a baseball game.
