The League of Dreams Mission
The League of Dreams is an adaptive sports league giving every child a chance to play by providing sports training, team camaraderie and competitive sporting opportunities to athletes ages 5 to 22 with physical, developmental, and cognitive disabilities.
About the League of Dreams
The League of Dreams, founded in 2007 by Tim Terrio of TERRIO Physical Therapy and Fitness, is dedicated to inclusion and empowerment. In March 2007, with less than 50 kids, we launched our inaugural baseball season. In 2012, we proudly unveiled Abilities Field, Bakersfield’s first adaptive baseball field, alongside an accessible playground. From our modest beginnings, we’ve expanded to offer 11 sports programs, including baseball, basketball, bowling, and dance, serving over 800 athletes and counting. Through fundraising efforts, we keep costs low for our athletes, ensuring accessibility for all. With each passing day, we’re breaking barriers and making dreams a reality. Our goal has always been the same: to provide athletes with disabilities in Kern County the opportunity to shine.Join us in our journey.
