Episode 49 – Keep Kids in the Game, Keep the Fields Alive Guest: Rick Stockfield, Founder & President, 3 Up 3 Down Organization, Inc.

In this inspiring episode of Sounds of Health, host David MacNiven sits down with Rick Stockfield, the passionate founder of 3 Up 3 Down Organization, Inc.—a nonprofit dedicated to supporting youth baseball, empowering children with developmental disabilities, and building inclusive sports spaces in the Hudson Valley and beyond.

Rick shares the heartfelt origin story of the organization, the grassroots rise of their wildly successful charity poker tournament, and their ambitious vision to build an adaptive sports field for children of all abilities. From sliding into first (and breaking his leg!) to sliding into early retirement to give back full-time, Rick’s journey is equal parts hilarious, humbling, and hopeful.

🎧 Tune in for laughs, legacy, and a reminder that community is the real MVP.
