The Little League Challenger Division provides the framework so Little League programs may offer a structured, athletic activity for all youth in their communities. Playing with the same equipment on the same fields, Challenger Division participants experience the joys of pulling together as a team, being cheered and earning awards for their achievements.The Somerset Challengers Little League/ Athletics offer free to participants expanded opportunities for children with disabilities such as a Swimming Team, and Bowling Teams.
