Ball Buddy Information

The success of the Sioux Falls Miracle League requires the help of volunteer "Ball Buddies" who assist the players with playing the game of baseball. Each game night requires a group of approximately 15-20 Ball Buddies to help out with the game. Ball Buddy groups in the past have been everything from local business groups, student councils, church groups, and area baseball/softball teams.

 

If you are interested in volunteering to become a Ball Buddy for this great program, please contact the SEBA office, 605-336-3462 or sebaadministration@siouxempirebaseball.org. Thank you and PLAY BALL SIOUX FALLS!

Ball Buddy Responsibilities

Ball Buddies are used primarily in the infield when the other team is batting.  They help protect players from:

             -Hit & Thrown balls

             -On-coming runners

          

Ball Buddies also assist players in retrieving the ball and throwing it to the appropriate base, assist players during their turn at bat and while running the bases, and facilitate player involvement (chatter, cheering for teammates, etc.)
