THE MIRACLE LEAGUE
OF WESTERN MASSACHUSETTS
P.O. Box 6684, Holyoke, MA 01040 www.miracleleaguewestma.com
President: Brian Feeley
The Miracle League of Western Massachusetts is a youth baseball organization for kids from 4 to 19 years
old with physical and/or cognitive disabilities. Through an adaptive game and the help of volunteers, we break down the barriers that normally keep kids with disabilities off the field like you would see in a city or park & rec baseball league. All of our players hit, run, and play the field with a volunteer buddy, who helps them navigate through the game with as much or as little assistance as needed to be successful.

OPERATING BUDGET
$17,100 (2024)
MISSION STATEMENT
