Tennis is for ALL: A Window into Cheyenne Adaptive Tennis and Ways to Create a Program in Your Community

Session Description

During this presentation, you will be introduced to the Cheyenne Adaptive Tennis Program, which will include how we began, a snapshot of our athletes, and what a typical practice looks like. We will go over some benefits of participating in tennis and how to easily adapt to all ability levels. We will then work through how to identify community partners to begin setting up a program in your own community. Although this presentation is centered around adaptive tennis, the information can be transferred to any sport. Sometimes all it takes to begin an adaptive sport program is passion, a little initiative, and making friends with the right people!

Presenter: Kacie Pugel, PT, DPT, Program Director for Cheyenne South Adaptive Tennis
