The Miracle League is a FREE baseball/softball league for children with special needs from age 5 – 18 and adults 19 and older. The Miracle League is just like baseball. Players will bat, round the bases, catch, throw, and hit Home Runs! There are a few differences in how the game is played.
Special rubberized playing surface.
The league is open to all Greater Des Moines residents. Games are played at the Miracle League of Urbandale, located at Northview Park Little League Complex, traditionally on Sundays. Urbandale Parks and Recreation will assign players to teams after registration is complete. Each team will need at least two parent coaches.

There are over 20,000 kids with disabilities in the Des Moines Metro and most playgrounds do not give these children an opportunity to experience the fun and joy of being outdoors with their peers. Urbandale Parks and Recreation has an extraordinary, one-of-a-kind inclusive playground for children and families of all needs; enhancing the play experience for all metro residents.
We also need volunteers to be Angels in the Outfield. Each player has a buddy that gets to spend the game with them. Buddies can be ages 13 and older. As a buddy you will protect the player at all times. Assist the player, allowing them to play as much as possible. Support all the players with high fives, knuckles, and cheering. Enjoy the players and your experience.
