In 1989, Little League launched its Challenger Division to
provide boys and girls with disabilities the opportunity to enjoy
and participate in the game of baseball. Disabled children from the
ages of 5-18 are eligible to participate. Challenger baseball
features “buddies” who help their partners by assisting the players
when needed.
