The Challenger Division of Little League is a program for children with disabilities. Participants enjoy the Little League experience using the same equipment and field, in an athletic environment structured to their abilities. In addition to Little League program hallmarks – strengthening self-esteem, providing opportunities to mainstream into other divisions of play, experiencing the disciplines of teamwork and sportsmanship, being cheered, and earning awards for their achievements – the Challenger Division also provides unique therapeutic and socialization benefits for participants and supporters alike.
The Challenger Division will be fielding eight teams this year. Sponsoring businesses and organizations include: Sheriff Protective Association, Bank of Nevada, Nationwide Insurance - Bryan Z. Terry & Associates, Nevada Association of Legal Secretaries, Pronto Constructors, The Lovaas Center, A Children’s Dentist, The Police Athletic League, Bahanna Batteries & Golf Carts, and Nevada PEP.
