Where we are headed
Play Global is working on several projects that fit our mission of teaching teamwork and respect through baseball. We are careful to choose locations where our work will have the greatest impact, and to team up with local programs whenever possible.
Here's what's coming up:
Israel
In partnership with the Israel Association of Baseball, Play Global will focus on bringing Jewish Israeli and Arab Israeli youth together on the baseball field. We will work with both players and coaches to help these kids make friends and have fun together while playing baseball. Click here to read more about our work in Israel.
South Africa
Play Global will send a coach to introduce kids from disadvantaged areas, formerly known as townships, to the game of baseball. Our coach will work with schools and communities to set up an ongoing league that brings kids together through baseball.
Kyrgyzstan
Play Global will return to Kyrgyzstan in July and August to lead Summer Camp America, a program run by nonprofit American Councils for International Education and sponsored by the U.S. Department of State. Young campers will be introduced to classic camp activities and American culture, including baseball! For more details, check out our June newsletter.
East Africa
We are planning a regional clinic and tournament in Uganda for Fall 2017. More details coming soon!

Play Global's founders and board have years of experience in international baseball coaching and administration. We can bring Play Global! programming to several international locations as soon as funding is available. We also need to raise funds to make this work possible. If friends of Play Global have contacts, resources, or particular interest in a future destination, please contact us.
