The
Chicago Comets Beep Baseball Team is a group of Blind and Visually Impaired
athletes from the Chicago land area who love to play baseball. The Comets are
members of the National Beep Baseball Association (NBBA) and compete against
other NBBA teams from all over the country. Beep Baseball is a version of conventional baseball that has been adapted to allow visually impaired athletes to compete. In Beep baseball we use 16” softballs that beep and 4’ tall bases that buzz which allow Blind and Visually Impaired Athletes to participate and enjoy America’s Pastime! The Comets get together to practice every Saturday at Rainey Park in Chicago. They play in several regional tournaments across the Midwest each year. The Comets 2008 schedule includes tournaments in Topeka, KS - Long Island, NY - , and our own local tournament in Bolingbrook, IL. The 2008 World Series will be played in Houston, TX. 2008 Exhibition Game Schedule - Come out and watch the Comets play against sighted opponents.
