Baseball Team

Variety Village's Baseball Team is an adaptive baseball program designed for children, youth, and adults with physical, cognitive, or developmental disabilities. The program creates an inclusive team environment where every athlete is valued, supported, and celebrated. Through baseball, participants develop important life skills such as teamwork, communication, confidence, and social inclusion, while building friendships and a strong sense of belonging. 

Variety Village is proud to be a Jays Care Community Partner and to host Disability-Centered Programming formerly referred to as Challenger Baseball, in both indoor and outdoor settings. Programs take place indoors during the winter season in Variety’s fully accessible fieldhouse, as well as outdoors at Variety’s courtyard baseball diamond and the Roy Halladay Field of Dreams, located near Variety Village.
