Cardinals Giving Back to the Community



This is one of those moments that as a coach, and parent, I am so proud of for our team.

The Redwood City Cardinals recently helped out a team of disabled kids play baseball locally here in Foster City.  Our Cardinals were the “buddies” for the day for their Little League’s Challenger division, and it was so great to see everyone have such a fun time – backing up the players, running the bases with them, and being the “announcers”. 

The Challenger Division of Little League offers kids with physical and mental challenges an opportunity to participate in organized baseball games.

Our Cardinals players learned a valuable life lesson - empathy.

It is so incredibly fulfilling to develop these boys not just in baseball skills, but more importantly to make them better people. For me and our coaches, that’s really one of the most important things we can impart on our young athletes. Love these kids!!!!!
