Our speakers were John Marchiony (right) and Joe Walsh (President) who gave us an
informative and enjoyable look at Adaptive Sports, New England!! The
organization helps people with vision or mobility issues to play and enjoy
sports……..sports are adaptive for the needs of the players…..wheelchair
football & basketball are primary.
The primary benefit the participants receive is not just the pleasure of the
competition but the realization that they are not alone….the program
benefits them socially and psychologically.
The program involves teams and sports for men and women; adults
and children of all ages!!!
