Youth Track and Field

Our youth track and field team is for kids ages 8-23 who have a permanent physical or visual impairment that would make them eligible for the Paralympics. Track and field is a great sport that allows for both individual and team achievements. Certified track coaches teach young and emerging athletes.

Athletes compete in a variety of events including the Junior Nationals. Our field athletes, in addition to strengthening their core and legs, focus on maintaining upper body strength with push-ups, sit-ups and throwing a medicine ball. Each one of our throwing events has the athlete using their core and legs to generate power.
