Matawan-Aberdeen Bambino Buddy-Ball offers a baseball program for children who are ages 5-20 years old with special needs.

Through the 'Buddy' system, our volunteer baseball buddies offer our athletes support and guidance in a positive and fun atmosphere.  Coaches and buddies help foster confidence, self-esteem, make memories, have fun and facilitate a safe environment.  Players and buddies participate in a variety of activities such as batting, catching, throwing, base running that are appropriate to the ability and ages of the players.

Athletes benefit from the opportunity to participate in organized sports and physical fitness while practicing social skills such as taking turns, sharing, and cooperative play.  Our "Buddies" achieve personal satisfaction, growth and understanding through their interaction with the players.

Each event will last about 1 hour and will include baseball themed games and activities.
