Adaptive Sports Northwest has been a life saver for me. Being able to participate in sports among others with various disabilities creates a fun, engaging family to compete with and makes me feel like a part of something bigger. Without ASNW, I wouldn’t have been able to play these sports in the same fashion, or meet all of the amazing staff and athletes.

ASNW has helped our son gain a greater appreciation for sports. He has enjoyed growing as an athlete in swimming and track & field. When he practices with ASNW he receives encouragement and not judgement. Thank you ASNW for unleashing an athlete!

Playing power soccer for ASNW has allowed me to connect with other athletes with disabilities in a way that I never had the opportunity to do so before.

My son is affected by cerebral palsy which significantly affects his mobility. Despite this, he is a sports kid. He loves to watch sports, to read about sports; but most importantly, he loves to participate in sports. […] Through ASNW, my son was introduced to Wheelchair Basketball. This has become his passion. He lives and breathes it; he talks about it constantly. Wheelchair basketball is his community where he has formed friendships and gained self-confidence. ASNW has been key to bringing this to our son and my family.

I like wheelchair basketball because I like to push myself physically. It gives me a fun way to work out and I love that I have a sport that I can play.
