Cape Cod League team recognizes nonprofit that helps sick and disabled children

BOURNE – The Bourne Braves honored children with serious illnesses and disabilities at a special Cape Cod League game last week.

During a game versus the Falmouth Commodores, the Braves recognized the nonprofit “Team IMPACT”, which matches sick children with college athletic teams nationwide, with the goal of creating a life-changing experience.

Bourne Field Manager Scott Landers is also the head baseball coach at Oswego State University, where his team was matched with a boy with cerebral palsy, and they formed a close bond which has lasted beyond the boy’s graduation from the program.
