In 1989 Little League Baseball established the Challenger Division, a program for players with mental and/or physical disabilities. This includes developmental delays, Down syndrome, autism, cerebral palsy, spina bifida, etc. No child is turned away, no matter the disability or the ability to pay.

This year, Little League International has invited District 68 to bring a team of these special kids to Williamsport, PA. During the Little League World Series in August, our challenger team will play a televised game against another challenger team from Manalapan, New Jersey.

While this is an amazing opportunity for the kids, getting 15 players, parents, coaches, and Buddies (who assist plyers on the field) to Williamsport is an expensive endeavor. Our goal is to raise enough money to get everyone there without it being a financial burden on anyone.

Please help us reach our goal. Every donation matters, no matter how big or small.

All donations will go into a single "pot" to be distributed evenly among the team.

California District68 Little League Inc. is a 501(c)(3) corporation, so all donations are tax deductible.
