The Challenger LeagueThe Challenger Division was established in 1989 as a separate division of Little League Baseball to enable boys and girls with physical and mental disabilities, ages 5-18 or the completion of high school, to enjoy the game of baseball along with the millions of other children who participate in this sport worldwide. Each player gets a chance at bat. The side is retired when the offense has batted through the roster, or when a pre-determined number of runs has been scored, or when three outs are recorded. Little League recommends that no score be kept during games. The Challenger players wear the same uniforms, shoulder patches and safety equipment as other Little League players. The Moline League was organized in 1992 and followed in the footsteps of the Iowa Quad Cities and Galesburg area, who have their own leagues. We started with two teams and played our games on Sundays at various locations in Rock Island. The program has grown in the past few years and we now have six teams. We still play our games on Sunday afternoons, but at Stephens Park in Moline. Each child gets to play the entire game, fielding and batting, in an hour long game to their hearts content.
