A wounded soldier who enjoys a game of basketball with friends. A paraplegic athlete training for a cycling race. Or a disabled teen competing on her school's swim team. The dream may be different for each of them, but the need is the same. The right equipment, facilities, and support can make all the difference when it comes to living an active life.
Adaptive Sports Iowa believes every Iowan should have access to these resources. It's a passion that began decades ago with our program director/co-founder as a child living with a blind father. A passion that continued when he volunteered as a ski instructor for a disabled ski program during college
That's when he discovered how important adaptive sports are for people living with a physical disability. And that journey has led to the formation of this program. At Adaptive Sports Iowa we want to help people enjoy the activities they're passionate about, providing a sense of independence rather the isolation.
