About Us – Mikey's League

Stuck at Home Workout Series

Following CDC recommendations for physical activity, we are hosting FREE online workouts for all ages and ability levels.

We are firm believers that our athletes don’t need to be coddled and this is a workout in which we encourage athletes to push themselves to their maximum ability level. To be clear, this workout is appropriate for any functioning level, and we present multiple ways to complete all phases of the workout so that everyone can participate to the best of their ability.

Teen and Young Adult Social Night

Social Night is a weekly group for teens and young adults with and without disabilities to build friendships and experience belonging. Since we can’t build our community in-person, we are meeting virtually. We’ll be hanging out, chatting, and playing games weekly through Zoom.

Our Mission and Vision

We believe in the power of sport, and its moments of triumph, to unify, heal, and provide the confidence needed to succeed, regardless of challenges.

Vision:

To allow all kids to play, regardless of ability. Through inclusive sports create an opportunity to experience triumph and success in a way that they will remember forever.

What Makes Us Different

We are inclusive. We welcome athletes with physical disabilities, cognitive disabilities, and no disabilities to come together. We just want everyone to be able to play.
We believe that iron sharpens iron. Athletes of all ability levels practice and compete together. We take time on the front end to create balanced teams, utilizing our more experienced athletes to assist those needing more support during practices. During games, those athletes are matched against others at a similar skill level and still compete on the same teams as their more experienced peers.
We focus on the fundamentals. We are here to improve while we have fun. We get better by building our house on a strong foundation of the fundamentals.
We hold athletes accountable. We challenge and push our athletes to reach their potential. We treat them with the respect to not coddle them.
