BUDDYs are a vital part of the success of the League of YES. Each League of YES player is assigned a BUDDY for each game. The BUDDY is there to protect the player from balls, assist the player in batting and running the bases, and to be a friend on and off the field. Once you participate, you see that being a BUDDY allows you not only to make a difference in a special child’s life, but also to create a positive awareness in yourself. And, you will find that being a BUDDY is a lot of fun!
Covid protocols are followed. All activity is outdoors. If anyone is not fully vaccinated, they must wear a mask when in close proximity to other players.
