The YMCA of Arlington is teaming up with the Miracle Fields of DFW to put forward an exciting new program "Miracle League". Miracle League is an innovative new baseball program designed for children with developmental disabilities where EVERY child is able to play baseball regardless of their physical ability. All games will be played at the Doug Inman Miracle League Field at Randol Mill Park, a custom designed field with a cushioned synthetic turf to help prevent injuries. Fields will also have wheelchair accessible dugouts and a completely flat surface to eliminate any barriers wheelchair bound or visually impaired players may have. Miracle League Buddies are paired up with a specific player for the season (six game season). Buddies will assist their player in all aspects of the game with lots of praise and encouragement. Buddies can be adults, teenagers, siblings, and even parents.
Our sports programs depends on volunteers as coaches, and your support is needed! You will experience the joy of seeing
players learn and develop self confidence, participate in games and thoroughly enjoy playing sports. Contact the YMCA Sports Department if you are interested in becoming a Youth Sports Coach.
