Low Vision Certification

Each totally blind or visually impaired player of the NBBA, is required to have a letter of certification of their visual impairment from a qualified source in order to be considered eligible to play in the World Series or any NBBA event. The low vision certification only needs to be submitted once. If a player has provided this document in a past season, since 2003, that player need not submit it again. This letter of certification is only required for new members and it must declare the player to be visually impaired according to the Federal government guidelines for this disability. Those guidelines are
(to be declared visually impaired) We consider you to be legally blind under Social Security rules if your vision cannot be corrected to better than 20/200 in your better eye, or if your visual field is 20 degrees or less, even with a corrective lens.
Many people who meet the legal definition of blindness still have some sight, and may be able to read large print and get around without a cane or a guide dog.
See the Social Security Administration guidelines for further clarification.

The letter must be issued from a qualified source. Examples are as follows:

Optometrist, Ophthalmologist, or other eye care specialist;
A physician eligible to test vision;
A government agency; (city, state, or federal) that provides vision testing or disability services and has a current record of the players impairment.

If anyone has any questions regarding the source they will be using, please contact the NBBA Secretary at:
Phone: (507) 208-8383
or
NBBA Secretary, Stephen Guerra

The letters must be dated within the last two years (no earlier than January 1st two years before the current year).

Team contacts must turn in all letters of certification no later than with their final team rosters, which are due by July 1st of each season. If a player does not have a letter of certification on file with the NBBA secretary by this deadline, they will not be eligible for play as a player in a NBBA World Series. If a player is a late roster addition the letter must be provided to the NBBA secretary at the time the player is added to the team roster.

Parental Waiver Form

The Parental Waiver was developed to make sure that all parents understand the risks of playing beep baseball before having their child compete in a NBBA World Series. Any person under the age of 18 must have this waiver signed and submitted before playing in the NBBA World Series.
