ABOUT THE MIRACLE LEAGUE OF SOUTHWESTERN PA
The Miracle League of Southwestern Pennsylvania (MLSWPA) was formed in January 2007 and is dedicated to providing the opportunity for children and adults with physical and mental disabilities to play organized baseball. In addition to organizing a league for special needs children and adults, the MLSWPA built a facility that meets the unique needs of this special group of children and adults. Affiliated with the National Miracle League Baseball organization, the MLSWPA reached an agreement with Cranberry Township to integrate a Miracle League Field into the baseball complex that the Township developed in the new Graham Park.
Opening Day for the Miracle League of Southwestern Pennsylvania was on May 16, 2009.
The MLSWPA is committed to expanding its offerings and support to special needs children and adults in Western Pennsylvania.
