Sachem’s two girls soccer teams recently visited the League
of YES to volunteer as buddies for the athletes in the program. The High School
East team visited on Sept. 28 and High School North visited on Oct. 5.
The League of YES provides inclusive sports programs for
individuals of all abilities. Its mission is to offer the benefits of team
sports while promoting self-esteem and a healthy, active lifestyle. The Sachem
teams helped participants play baseball. They assisted in batting, running the
bases and most importantly, be a friend on and off the field. It was a
rewarding experience for all and fostered teamwork and social connections.
