City and Sacramento River Cats host baseball programs for youth with disabilities

The Sacramento River Cats and Access Leisure are proud to announce the 15th Annual “Baseball for All” FREE skills clinic. The clinic is scheduled for Saturday, May 7 from 10 a.m. – 1 p.m. River Cats players and coaches will be on-hand to teach junior athletes the fundamentals of baseball.

This unique opportunity is open to youth with disabilities— ages three through school age. Each ball player will need to be accompanied by one parent or guardian over the age of 18.

Participants will receive a “Baseball for All” tee shirt and will be served lunch along with their parent or guardian. As an added bonus, each ballplayer will receive two free tickets to a River Cats home game at Raley Field. For more details, please see our flyer.
