 For many children with physical disabilities, participation in athletics can present a variety of barriers. For athletes with physical disabilities, these barriers might reduce or even eliminate the opportunity for you/your child to participate at the level he or she would like. Teachers in the APE department are excited to volunteer with
Challenge Alaska to offer the Blaze Sports Program which provides an opportunity for you/your child to participate in a variety of athletics for people with physical disabilities right here in Anchorage.
The Blaze Sports Program provides sporting opportunities for people with physical disabilities comparable to those provided for non-disabled persons. Blaze Sports introduces able and interested students with physical disabilities, teachers and coaches to adaptive sport instruction and competition. The program also provides news and interactive resources for all students, teachers, and coaches. In addition, the Blaze Program exposes participants to elite international and Paralympic athletes.
