Step Up to the Plate with
Miracle League of Metro Denver!
*A volunteer opportunity*
ACC Colorado and CBA YLD are teaming up on April 30th to volunteer as buddies for Miracle League of Metro Denver, a nonprofit in metro Denver that provides children and adults, who are living with various mental and/or physical challenges, an opportunity to play baseball as a team member in an organized league.
“Buddies” assist the players throughout the game, which typically includes rolling ground balls, helping the player swing the bat, or pushing players in wheelchairs around the bases. No special training is required, and you’re really just there to make sure the players are having fun! MLMD staff will provide specific guidance to volunteers on the day of the games, and if you’re still curious what being a buddy entails, you can watch this short video.
