We strive to match each child with the team that can provide the best support. We also try to match your child at a school that is conveniently located for your family. We understand some children have preferences for specific sports and will try to accommodate when able, but our priority is to provide the best experience.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Team IMPACT is about relationships. While sports bring matches together, the primary focus is on the support that is gained through being part of a team. Participants do not have to play sports or even be huge sports fans, to benefit from their involvement. Team IMPACT individualizes the program experience to meet the medical, physical, and emotional needs of each child.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Our program is family centered. While one child will be officially signed to the team, participation in Team IMPACT is something that families can do together.<\/p>\n

In addition, if you have additional children living with a qualifying medical condition, they can be officially signed to the same team or can be matched with their own team if preferred.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
