Sled Hockey: Empowering Athletes and Building Community

To come into a community like this and just have all the disabilities thrown out the door, leave it behind and just come in and play a sport with your team like anyone else would do growing up.
Ever seen hockey played on sleds? This episode of 'Rehabilitationships' takes you right to the heart of the Griff's Sled Hockey Classic, a thrilling tournament featuring over 200 athletes with disabilities. Sled hockey, a Paralympic sport, brings a unique twist to traditional ice hockey. Players sit on bladed sleds and use specially designed sticks to glide and compete fiercely on the ice.
You'll hear from Steve Kozlowski, the coach of the Grand Rapids Junior Sled Wings, and Megan Bouman, sports coordinator at Mary Free Bed Wheelchair and Adaptive Sports. They share insights into the sport's inclusive nature and the remarkable community it fosters. Two young athletes also join the conversation, offering a firsthand look at how sled hockey has impacted their lives.
This episode isn't just about the game; it's about breaking barriers, fostering inclusivity, and celebrating the indomitable spirit of these athletes. Whether you're a sports enthusiast or simply love a good story of triumph, this episode will leave you inspired and uplifted.
