2020 Spring LeagueCOVID-19 MIRACLE LEAGUE UPDATE:
Attention all Miracle League players and families: after listening to the Mayor’s update about when we can re-open businesses and when sporting events can continue. It looks like it will be at least June 1st before we can play Miracle League. While that means we will only have a few games, I am hopeful that we can still have at least some type of season. Please continue to check back on this page to see if any changes have been made. Any child or adult (ages 5 and up) with developmental disabilities is welcome to play baseball in the Miracle League of Enid. Fee: There is a $35 fee to enroll. If you use the same uniform as last year, the fee is $15. We also have limited scholarships available for those who cannot afford to pay. Season Details: Games will be played on Saturdays beginning on April 25 , through May and ending June 20 at the ABC Park on North Van Buren. There will be a parent meeting for on April 7th at 5:30 pm at 4RKids Mini Golf, 710 Overland Trail. This meeting is for new parents, but all parents are welcome to attend.

In 1997, Rockdale Youth Baseball Association’s coach Eddie Bagwell invited the first child with a disability to play baseball on his team. Michael, a 7 year old child in a wheel chair, attended every game and practice, fully enjoying America’s favorite pastime. In 1998, other children with disabilities were invited to play baseball on a field within the baseball complex of the Rockdale Youth Baseball Association (RYBA). The players expressed the desire to dress in uniforms, make plays in the field and round the bases just like their mainstream peers. The league began with 35 players on four teams in its first year.
This organization has two objectives: (1) Raise the necessary funds to build complexes with facilities that meet the unique needs of Miracle League players, and (2) assist in the outreach efforts for Miracle Leagues across the country. The thrill of playing, the cheers from the stands and the friendships they develop make the Miracle League Field an oasis away from these children’s (& now adults as well) everyday battles.
The Miracle League T-Ball teams are formed every spring and games are played on Saturdays in May and June. The Miracle League of Enid is co-hosted by Enid Noon AMBUCS and 4RKids.
