MIXED ABILITY SPORTS IRELAND

Changing the way we think of, join in and enjoy sports

Mixed Ability Sport encourages social inclusion and physical activity by welcoming players of all abilities into a mainstream sport setting in their local community playing non-adapted sports.

The model represents a radical approach to promoting meaningful inclusion, challenging the way we think of and join in sports, leading to broader social inclusion.

Having given up sport in my teens, I never thought I would be back playing sport again let alone be taking up a new sport
