About us:
Mikey’s League exists to bring our community together through the power of inclusive sports. We achieve this goal by bringing together our athletes (children and young adults with physical or intellectual disabilities) to compete alongside their peer partners (individuals without disabilities). We create a genuine team sport experience for all participants with structured practices, intentional coaching, and teams structured so that everyone’s talents can shine.

This weekend our high school basketball team, in collaboration with PS Academy Arizona competed in the Special Olympics Arizona State tournament. The kids competed in the highest adult division and went 3-1 on the weekend, with the only loss being to the eventual champions from Tempe (who played an amazing game). We are so proud of our athletes and are starting to look ahead to our summer program. We are beyond grateful for the support for that program from Phoenix Suns Charities. We are always looking for volunteers to get engaged as well as sponsorships. You can find more information on our website.![]()

Inclusive Ball Hockey League starting in April for teens and young adults with and without disabilities.
Following the success of our ice hockey program, we realized that we needed to find a way to make the sport we love more accessible to everyone. By playing hockey on a court and wearing shoes, we can safely and effectively teach the fundamentals of the sport in a way that athletes of any skill level can participate. Thanks to support from the Arizona Coyotes Foundation and with coaching assistance from the Coyotes Hockey Development Team, we can offer this program with locations in Peoria and Tempe, and we will end the season with a tournament between teams from the two.
ESA is accepted. info@mikeysleague.org
