VOLUNTEERS NEEDED TO ASSIST PLAYERS.
Volunteers are the heart of the Massapequa Challenger Baseball Program. Every game, every smile, and every unforgettable moment on the field is made possible by people who choose to give their time, energy, and encouragement to our athletes.
As a Challenger volunteer—often called a Buddy—you play a vital role in creating a safe, supportive, and joyful baseball experience for players of all abilities. Volunteers assist athletes as needed during batting, fielding, and base running, while always encouraging independence, confidence, and fun.
Who Can Volunteer?
We welcome volunteers from all backgrounds and experience levels, including:
- Students (middle school, high school, and college)
- Parents and family members
- Athletes and coaches
- Community members and service organizations
- Anyone looking to make a meaningful impact
No baseball experience is required—just patience, positivity, and a willingness to support our players.
Why Volunteers Matter
Challenger Baseball is about more than learning the game. It’s about:
- Building confidence and independence
- Creating friendships and social connections
- Fostering inclusion and belonging
- Showing our athletes—and their families—that the community is cheering for them
For many volunteers, Challenger becomes one of the most rewarding experiences they’re ever part of.
Our Volunteer Philosophy
- Assist, don’t take over – allow players to do as much as they can on their own
- Safety first – protect and support players at all times
- Encourage and celebrate – effort and joy matter more than outcomes
- Have fun – laughter and smiles are part of the game
Whether you volunteer once or return season after season, your presence makes a difference.
Get Involved
If you’re looking for a chance to give back, earn service hours, or simply be part of an incredible community experience, we would love to have you join us on the field.

Our baseball program has 3 levels of play:
A – non competitive, everyone bats and plays the field, and runs are not counted.
AA – more competitive – coaches pitch, players are limited to five swings, runs and outs are counted, and players are encouraged to make plays in the field.
AAA- most competitive- players pitch; count balls, strikes and outs; rules similar to regular baseball. This division is our more experienced players. This is our travel team and they play half of their games away.
