2007 - Ohio State Wheelchair Games, Columbus Ohio
..
We are interested in many many things. Adaptive Sports are important to us. We participate in a variety of sporting events as a team of veterans from the Northern Kentucky/Ohio area. Annually, we participate in the Disabled Veterans Winter Sports Clinic, the National Veterans Wheelchair Games, as well as the Ohio State Wheelchair Games and a variety of other competitions such as hunting and national Bass fishing tournaments.
Here's a little video clip of last year's National Veterans Wheelchair games in Milwaukee, which hosted nearly 600 wheelchair veterans from the United States, Puerto Rico & England. Our Ohio team is one of the largest teams in the US and we are proud of our active involvement in these events.

Our Cincinnati athletes are avid bowlers ... usually we bowl about 3 times weekly on wheelchair/able-bodied leagues that we've formed as well as practices. However, we truly like to mix it up a little with handcycling, billiards, track & field events, air rifles & trap shooting, softball, basketball, archery, etc.
