What is your favorite part of a Miracle League game? Why? I love how excited the kids get and how involved the crowd can be. It is an extremely positive environment and you can’t help but come away happy/fulfilled. I love it when I get to watch a coach spend time helping an athlete get set up and give them pointers. When they connect, it is a beautiful moment combining patience, hope and perseverance. When the athlete hits the ball, you can feel the joy in the coach and the athlete at the same time. There are few things more poignant to witness.

What is your favorite part of a Miracle League game? Why? My favorite part of a Miracle League game is getting to know the players and seeing them have so much fun. I also love getting to know the other interns and field staff. We have the best time working together. We laugh and love each other just like family members. I have learned so much more as an intern and field staff than I ever thought I could.
