Programs for Young Adults with Disabilities

ODS launched its first sports development program for young adults with special needs in January 2024 for individuals ages 18-25. We will work to build skills in basketball and soccer (Spring 2025) while also teaching teamwork, appropriate competition, and how to have fun and find success in sports.

Game Day Competitive Program

Our Game Day program occurs during the three seasons of the academic year and is for our older, more advanced players with special needs who are looking for a competitive, real game-like experience. The program has a unified format with team comprised of both players WITH and players WITHOUT disabilities. Fall and spring Game Days are soccer and winter Game Days are basketball.

Our monthly Changemaker Club activities foster and affirm the relationships between our players and peer buddies by coming together off of the sports field to enjoy an activity together. Examples of Changemaker Club events include an art class, bowling outing, theatre outing, holiday lights show, etc. As is the case for all programs, Changemaker Club activities are completely free of charge.
