Serving over 500 individuals each spring and fall season, the simple joys of hitting a ball, running to home plate and being part of a team are a just a small part of the Miracle League experience.

Some of our volunteer opportunities include:
Buddy - Working one-on-one with players on the ball field, Buddies assist our players, as needed, hitting, running the bases and out on the field, keeping safety, friendship and fun as their priority. Baseball experience is not required but enthusiasm is.
Umpires - Our umpires don’t call balls, strikes and outs, but they have an important role in our games. Keeping safety at Homeplate a priority, assisting coaches as needed and celebrating the accomplishments of our players are the principle goals.
Announcer - Announcers make a huge impact on the Miracle League experience, introducing players, providing some play-by-play to the game and delivering encouragement to the players over the loud speakers. Volunteer must be familiar with our games.
DJ - If you are familiar with iTunes and an iPad, you can be a DJ. We provide you with the playlists, you just start the song when a player comes up to bat.
MLT Store - We have a very simple concession stand that needs a winning smile. Must be able to make change without a calculator.
