Our story

SoCal Beep Baseball Association (SCBBA) is a nonprofit sports organization that was founded in January 2018 by Darren Keepers in South Pasadena, California. SCBBA was created to provide Beep Baseball opportunities for blind and visually impaired youth, adults and military veterans throughout Southern California.
We believe that the athletic opportunities offered through SoCal Beep Baseball Association give those with visual impairments the chance to improve independence by participating in sports without restrictions. Through these activities and competition, people who are blind and visually impaired will enjoy baseball just like those with full sight.
What we currently offer
SoCal Beep Baseball Association successfully launched the San Gabriel Valley Panthers in May of 2018. The Panthers practice Saturday mornings in Pasadena from March through October each year and are competing in the 2022 Beep Baseball World Series in Beaumont Texas.
SCBBA is officially launching 2 teams in 2022. Santa Clarita will be the home of the Stingers and Pasadena will host the Cubs youth team. Both teams will kick things off in September.
