Welcome to The Miracle League of LaGrange

What is The Miracle League? It’s hope, determination, and a display of human spirit that is unequaled. And, of course…there’s baseball.

There is something about playing the game that lights up a youngster’s eyes. But for children with physical and mental disabilities that opportunity can often be difficult to achieve. Baseball diamonds weren’t exactly designed with wheelchairs and mobility devises in mind.

The Miracle League removes the barriers that keep children with mental and physical disabilities off the baseball field and lets them experience the joy of America’s favorite pastime. But it’s more than playing a game. The Miracle League is about making new friends, building self-esteem and being treated like other kids. To help the athletes, The Miracle League uses a “buddy” system – pairing each player with an able-bodied peer. The result is a bond that cannot be described.  The Miracle League serves children with any physical or mental disabilities, which can cause them to be excluded from conventional youth baseball leagues.

The Kia Miracle League Field and Pepsi Inclusive Playground are part of the Jim & Annette Boyd Inclusive Athletic Complex of Lafayette Christian School. It is made available to the community by Lafayette Christian School, Miracle League of LaGrange, Callaway Foundation, and thousands of generous donors.

The Miracle League surface is made of custom-designed, cushioned synthetic turf that accommodates wheelchairs and other walking devices. Restrooms, dugouts, and the playground are completely accessible to people with disabilities.
