Challenger Baseball League

The Challenger Division was established in 1989 as a separate division of Little League to enable boys and girls with physical and intellectual disabilities, ages 4-18, or up to age 22 if still enrolled in high school, to enjoy the game of baseball along with the millions of other children who participate in this sport worldwide. Today, more than 30,000 children participate in more than 900 Challenger Divisions worldwide. Teams are set up according to abilities, rather than age, and can include as many as 15-20 players. Challenger games can be played as tee ball games, coach pitch, player pitch, or a combination of the three. You can find a league nearest you by visiting littleleague.org.
