About:
Since 2016, POB JFK Baseball has collaborated with MacArthur for the autism awareness game, featuring raffles and prizes to support the cause. Their commitment extends beyond the game weekend, as they dedicate their time to community service. Following their Saturday match, they assist the Plainview Challenger League on Sundays.
Moreover, they organize two additional charity games. One honored Officer Diller, where both Syosset HS and them collectively raised over 2K. Their final default season game on 5/11 is dedicated to Corey’s Promise against St. Anthony’s.
Beyond baseball skills, they instill in their players values of respect, selflessness, and compassion. They emphasize the importance of empathy, recognizing diverse backgrounds, and practicing gratitude for their blessings.
