NAFBF believes it our job to "reach in and reach out", teaching young players there is more to life than sports, and we are all called to serve a purpose greater than our own by helping those in the community that are less fortunate. Throughout the year we have community projects in place where players volunteer their time, thereby understanding the importance of servant leadership. We know that donating even a small amount of time can make an enormous difference to those in need. In fact, the benefits are twofold. Youth who volunteer are more likely to do well in school, graduate, and vote, as well as expanding their social circle and enhancing social awareness. The community gains a generation of young people who care about where they live and are willing to make a commitment to improvement. MAKING A DIFFERENCEThere are those in life, that participate, those that produce, and those that change the game. At NAFBF, our mission is to bring out the greatness in each player as the world needs gamechangers! We do not simply need a better world for our children, we need better children for our world. The platform of sports is an incredible learning ground for such mentoring. WHYWith a passion for kids and the development of young players, NAFBF values the importance of organized sports. Players of all talent levels learn lifelong skills through teamwork, discipline, goal setting and time management. Belonging to a team allows players to follow great leadership and work on effective communication for a common goal. We believe proper sportsmanship and attitude when the team is winning OR losing is a valuable skill carried out in many areas of life.As a member of the Board of Directors of National Amateur Fall Baseball Federation, I have a legal and ethical responsibility to ensure that the organization does the best work possible in pursuit of its goals. I support the purpose and mission of the organization and pledge my commitment to aid in carrying out its work.
