We play ball! The sport of beep baseball has been around for decades. The Greater Cleveland Beepball League and the Cleveland Scrappers team are entering their 41st season. The softball we play with beeps and our bases buzz. We play the games we play for more than the thrill of recapturing our youth. We play the game because of what it allows us to do. The Cleveland Scrappers and the Greater Cleveland Beepball League for 40 years has enabled blind and visually impaired athletes the opportunity to engage in a competitive sport where we work as a team. Prior to playing beep baseball many of our players had never had the opportunity to play team sports where they are a factor and not a passive participant. We aim to provide opportunity and to change perceptions of what people who are blind and visually impaired have to contribute.
>This site is our home for information and to show everyone what we are up to. Our team is a family, and we want to grow it.
Just because a person has a disability does not mean the game is over. You find a new way to play it. We want to show you those ways.
You can also find information about the Cleveland Scrappers on our facebook page or Contact Us to see how to get involved.

This is our first big marketing effort of the 2024 season. Please give us feedback for which ideas you think we should use for our recruitment efforts involving the eclipse. … See MoreSee Less
