Starting a Challenger Baseball program in your school is easy. You don’t need to have experience coaching sports, or leading phys-ed or be a special education teacher. Anyone who works in a school and is motivated to create new opportunities for students with disabilities to engage in fun, dynamic and team-building sport can sign up. Prior to signing up, be sure to review the Requirements for schools/organizations section. Once you sign up, your school is eligible to attend our next available training program. Our training is dynamic and fun, and equips educators and support staff with the experience, knowledge, skills and resources to launch a Challenger Baseball program that is fun, inclusive and adaptive for each athlete.
