New sports and recreation opportunities for students with disabilities

The Movin' Mavs Adapted Sport program is looking to offer new sport and recreation programs for students with disabilities on campus.  Training is being planned for all group exercise instructors in making modifications for students with disabilities.  Some of our Kine Swim classes are prepared for modifications based on disability in both learn to swim classes and swim for fitness classes.  Programs are being planned for the Fall semester in Paralympic Swimming, Indoor Wheelchair Soccer (manual and power chairs), and Introduction to Wheelchair Basketball.  Students with disabilities who are looking for opportunities to participate in any of these programs or who have interest in other programs need to contact Doug Garner (dgarner@uta.edu) and talk about opportunities for the Fall Semester.
