βΎπ Field of Dreams & Ability Sports
The Field of Dreams and Ability Sports program removes barriers that keep children and adults with mental and physical disabilities out of the game—giving everyone the chance to experience the joy of play.
Participants enjoy a custom-designed rubberized turf field that accommodates wheelchairs and assistive devices while helping prevent injuries, creating a safe and inclusive environment for all.
But this program is about more than just sports. It’s about:
- Building friendships
- Growing self-confidence
- Learning independence
- Being treated like any other athlete
Ages: 5–65+ are welcome to participate
