Beeping Baseball

Beep Baseball is a challenging, physically demanding and enjoyable sport for athletes who are blind or visually impaired. This ball conforms to the National Beep Ball Association and is slightly larger than a standard softball. Softer than a normal ball to reduce injury risk, it has an on/off switch for continuous beeping. You can recharge it via USB cable. Think about using it for playing catch, t-ball and other recreational ball games. Allows for inclusion of vision impaired players. There is information for starting a new team in your area online.
