05/27/14 Plymouth, Indiana has many great youth sports activities for kids year round. However the opportunities for children with special needs are very limited. Plymouth Junior League Baseball, the PHS Pilgrims Baseball Team and Coach Bob Caban are teaming up to develop a Special Needs Baseball Skills Camp.
The goal of the camp will be to teach baseball skills to children with disabilities ages 6 to 12 years old. Campers will gain the confidence to practice hitting, fielding, catching fly balls, and more during personal instruction with the coaches and their peer buddies.
The goals of this program are to promote acceptance and inclusion, improve the health and fitness of those with disabilities, and provide young athletes an outlet to give back to their community while developing mentoring skills. Campers get to experience the opportunity to play, learn, and be a part of a great recreational team sport like baseball; all kids need to be a part of a team.
Campers who preregister at the camp office will receive a t-shirt. Campers should bring a glove and hat.
Parents or Guardians are requested to stay during the camp.
Campers need to register by May 28that the Centennial Park Office
