Welcome

In partnership with Gwinnett County Parks & Recreation, Bears Make A Difference is a co-ed baseball league through Mountain View Athletic Association for school-aged kids with mental, physical, and/or multiple disabilities. The league's focus is to give participants a chance to play organized sports close to home.

Our program is designed around building self-confidence, friendships, and overall making it fun for participants and their families.

We believe that the physical and emotional benefits for the players, their families, peers, and our community will be amazing!!!
