MORGANVILLE, NJ, MARCH 18 2014: The NPDF is proud to announce its team sponsorship of a 2014 Police Officer Michael J. Buczek Little League team which plays in Washington Heights, New York.

The Police Officer Michael J. Buczek Little League was named in memory of NYPD Police Officer Michael J.Buczek who was killed by drug lords on October 18, 1988 while on duty in an area that was well known for drug activity in Washington Heights. After 25 years, their goals
are still strong, to keep children busy after school and on weekends so they remain off the streets. This league teaches the local youth Baseball skills and provides them with the opportunity to learn responsibility, commitment and about the dangers of crime and drugs while creating a bond and understanding between local Police and the community they serve. The teams are coached by Police Officers from the 34th Precinct and local residents.
