Manzanita Ball Club

The Manzanita Ball Club may benefit indirectly from recent developments in Arizona youth sports: the Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation and Arizona Complete Health have launched the Play Ball Fund Grant Program for the 2026 season. The initiative will distribute up to $90,000 across the state, awarding monthly grants of up to $1,000 to registered youth teams, leagues, or organizations involved in baseball or softball. Eligible applicants — including nonprofit organizations, schools, municipalities or leagues — may receive support for equipment, coach training, player fees, or facility improvements through August 31, 2026. The club could consider applying for this funding to support its ongoing operations and development in the Phoenix area.
