Message from Executive Director:

Friends,

There’s something about this time of year that makes every sports fan’s heart beat a little faster. For me, it’s the absolute sweet spot of the sports calendar—when nearly every major sport is in motion. Baseball is barreling toward the playoffs, every pitch loaded with October drama. Football has kicked off with all the excitement and unpredictable storylines we live for. And just as we settle into that rhythm, basketball and hockey training camps are gearing up—teasing us with the promise of a brand-new season on the hardwood and the ice.

It’s the perfect storm of competition and possibility—when athletes everywhere are pushing their limits, and fans like us get to ride the wave of anticipation. I spent my Saturday in Knoxville, TN visiting my son and watching the Tennessee Volunteers run roughshod over the UAB Blazers. Nothing makes you feel the power of community and sport like 80,000 people singing Rocky Top in unison.

And here at SoCal Adaptive Sports, the excitement isn’t just in the stands—it’s on the ramps, the ice, and even the lake! Our upcoming adaptive skateboarding sessions in Palm Springs and La Quinta are the perfect chance to experience the thrills of balance, strength, and pure adrenaline on a board. We’re also lacing up for our next adaptive hockey event, where athletes of all abilities can experience the speed and teamwork that make sled hockey so electrifying. And don’t miss the RIM Athlete Day at the Lake, an outdoor celebration of recreation and inclusion that promises water fun, camaraderie, and unforgettable memories.

Please use the links on the flyers below to register for these events and be part of the action.

At SoCal Adaptive Sports, this season of overlapping leagues is more than entertainment—it’s a reminder of why we do what we do. Sports bring people together, spark passion, and inspire us to chase our own goals, on and off the field. Whether you’re watching a pennant race, a Sunday kickoff, or the first puck drop of the year, may this season fuel your own drive to play, cheer, and dream big.

Here’s to the best time of the year for every athlete and fan—because the games we love are just getting started.

Onwards,

Chris Allen

Mensaje del Director Ejecutivo:

Amigos,

Hay algo en esta época del año que hace que el corazón de cada aficionado al deporte lata un poco más rápido. Para mí, es el momento perfecto del calendario deportivo: cuando casi todos los deportes principales están en plena acción. El béisbol avanza a toda velocidad hacia los playoffs, con cada lanzamiento cargado del drama de octubre. El fútbol americano ya ha comenzado, con toda la emoción y las historias impredecibles que tanto disfrutamos. Y justo cuando nos estamos acomodando a ese ritmo, los campamentos de entrenamiento de baloncesto y hockey se están poniendo en marcha, tentándonos con la promesa de una nueva temporada en la duela y en el hielo.

Es la tormenta perfecta de competencia y posibilidad: cuando los atletas en todas partes están superando sus límites y los aficionados, como nosotros, cabalgamos la ola de la anticipación. Pasé mi sábado en Knoxville, Tennessee, visitando a mi hijo y viendo a los Tennessee Volunteers dominar por completo a los UAB Blazers. Nada te hace sentir el poder de la comunidad y del deporte como 80,000 personas cantando Rocky Top al unísono.

Y aquí en SoCal Adaptive Sports, la emoción no está solo en las gradas—¡está en las rampas, en el hielo y hasta en el lago! Nuestras próximas sesiones de skateboarding adaptado en Palm Springs y La Quinta son la oportunidad perfecta para vivir la adrenalina del equilibrio, la fuerza y la emoción pura sobre la tabla. También nos estamos preparando para nuestro próximo evento de hockey adaptado, donde atletas de todas las habilidades pueden experimentar la velocidad y el trabajo en equipo que hacen del hockey en trineo algo tan electrizante. Y no se pierdan el Día del Atleta de RIM en el Lago, una celebración al aire libre de recreación e inclusión que promete diversión en el agua, compañerismo y recuerdos inolvidables.

Por favor, utilicen los enlaces en los folletos que aparecen a continuación para inscribirse en estos eventos y ser parte de la acción.

En SoCal Adaptive Sports, esta temporada en la que se superponen las ligas es más que entretenimiento: es un recordatorio de por qué hacemos lo que hacemos. El deporte une a las personas, enciende la pasión e inspira a todos a perseguir nuestras propias metas, dentro y fuera del campo. Ya sea que estés viendo una carrera por el banderín, el saque inicial de un domingo o el primer puck de la temporada, que esta época del año alimente tu propio impulso de jugar, animar y soñar en grande.

¡Brindemos por la mejor época del año para cada atleta y aficionado—porque los juegos que amamos apenas están comenzando!

¡Seguimos adelante!

Chris Allen
