Buddy Baseball is an organized baseball program for children ages 5 to 18 with physical or mental disabilities.  There is only a $15 fee to play because most costs are covered by program sponsors and the Red River Valley Down Syndrome Society.  This program is made possible through the support of the Breakfast Optimist Club of Paris and is a sub-division of Dixie Youth Baseball.  The spring program lasts approximately 6-7 weeks.  Games are played on Saturdays at Woodall Field in Paris, Texas.  There is no residency requirement to play.
