Outdoor Soccer

The PSA soccer program is designed for children with a disability who are ambulatory (i.e. do not use a wheelchair). This can include individuals with   Cerebral Palsy, Developmental/Global Delay or a similar disability.

The soccer program is held weekly and allows the athlete the opportunity to play games, have fun and work on their soccer skills. This is a great program to help children become more active.

ROLLER INTER-CROSSE SAMPLER
 
The Paralympic Sports Association, the Greater Edmonton Lacrosse Council and the Alberta Lacrosse Association are partnering together to create a brand new sport combining roller sledge hockey and Inter-Crosse (a form of lacrosse that involves no contact and has a stick with a barrier in the netting to prevent the ball from popping out as easily). The participants will use roller sledges while learning inter-crosse techniques.
The program will run for 4 weeks to begin with and we will have 2 qualified instructors and a few volunteers teaching the class this new, unique sport!
