Adaptive Sports Northwest’s Power Soccer program is for power wheelchair users. It builds character through teamwork, communication, hard work, perseverance, and sportsmanship. It’s the only team sport for people with quadriplegia, multiple sclerosis, muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, head trauma, stroke, spinal cord injury, and other disabilities.

ASNW gives youth and adults in power wheelchairs a chance to play a sport rarely available to them. Playing soccer shows athletes that a wheelchair doesn’t limit their ability to reach goals. The program builds teamwork and connection in a supportive community. Players can compete or play for fun. Games take place in a gym on a regulation basketball court. Two teams of four use skill, strategy, and spin-kicks to move a 13-inch soccer ball in a fast-paced game like able-bodied soccer.
