The Shane Victorino Foundation is seeking applications for a batting cage to be built in a neighborhood, park, school, or recreation site primarily to be utilized by underserved youth on Maui, Hawaii. Only non-profit organizations or municipalities are eligible to apply. Applications will not be accepted from individuals or for-profit groups.

Applicants may apply for more than one batting cage, if at different locations. The applicant should fill out a separate application for each location.

This project will be funded by the Shane Victorino Foundation. Once construction of the batting cage is complete, maintenance, upkeep and operation of the batting cage will be the responsibility of the Applicant.

Eligibility requirements:

• Applicant must be a public charity or state or local agency (i.e. county, school, etc)

• If selected, lease holder (if applicable) and land owner must sign an agreement to maintain a specified minimum level of insurance; add the Shane Victorino Foundation as an additional insured to the policy; maintain the batting cage under a high standard of care; among other stipulations

Recipients will be selected based on:
