WELCOME

Welcome to the VIP Special Needs Sports League blogspot. We are a unique sports league that was created eight years ago to allow children with any physical and/or mental disabilities to be able to play the great game of baseball. This program has continued to grow each year and four years ago we added soccer to our sports league.
Children from all over Utah County and it's surrounding areas come to play and range in age from 5-22.The kids play on smaller fields and each child is assisted by a "buddy," peer friends from the community who assist the players in playing. One of the greatest things about this league is that it is adaptable for each individual's specific needs. The games have a slower pace and everyone scores and wins!
Each child pays $15.00 to play and is given a shirt, hat or socks, pictures, trophy or medal. The reminder of the funds for this program are generated from Mapleton City Recreation and other community and private donations.
On any given day in this league, there are always a lot of smiles from participants, family members, and volunteers!!!
For more information on participating in this league or donating to this great league please contact Mapleton City Recreation at 801-806-9114.
