In addition, we have provided training and leadership opportunities to participants and volunteers throughout the community. What We Do

We currently offer sports programs including: downhill skiing, water skiing, wakeboarding, kayaking, cycling, rock climbing, archery, fishing, paddle boarding, and sailing. As our program expands, we hope to offer even more sports to meet the growing needs in our community.

The majority of our summer sports take place at our headquarters along the Scioto River in Powell, Ohio. Through a partnership with the City of Columbus we have access to nearly 22 acres of beautiful land along the river for water sports and fishing.

Adaptive Sports Connection teaches skills to the individual with a disability and to their family, friends, or other support people so they can enjoy sports together. Adaptive Sports Connection relies heavily on our volunteers - many of whom have disabilities themselves. We are committed to providing quality training by having certified volunteer instructors including numerous ski instructors, kayaking instructors, and water ski instructors.
