Meet Baseball5: the hip, new partner of America’s Pastime! It’s a lightning-fast, high-energy game that shares the same core principles as traditional baseball. But here’s what makes it special: it can be played anywhere, with just a rubber ball. No fancy equipment needed! Baseball5 was born from a desire to make baseball more accessible to everyone, without compromising the uniqueness of the game. So, we stripped away all the complicated stuff and created a dynamic, mixed-gender team sport that’s all about instant fun. Each team has five players – plus reserves – and depending on the format, a game can last between 15 and 20 minutes. Baseball5 is the epitome of a cool sport: it’s sustainable, inclusive, youth-focused and makes non structured spaces come alive with athletic energy. Baseball5 is built on the pillars of Inclusion, Accessibility, Confidence, Innovation and Teamwork. Baseball5 is a game for everyone that can be mastered in minutes. No need for extensive equipment, a dedicated venue, or even a pitcher! All you need is a ball! #PlayEverywhere. To learn more about Baseball5, where to buy a Baseball5 ball, or how to bring Baseball5 programming to your organization, send an email to Baseball5@usabaseball.com

Paws For Life Service & Therapy Animals

Barkpark Logo Paws For Life USA trains and provides children and adults with disabilities specially trained dogs. Those precious moments when you see a dog working with their handler, helping hear, helping assist, and helping alert are treasured moments never forgotten. There is nothing more profound or heartwarming than to train a dog to assist a disabled child or adult to have a better quality of life. We train therapy animals to be comfortable in many environments and to interact with different people to promote the human-animal bond, so come and meet some of our service and therapy animals and handlers in booth #865 and learn what we do.
