OUR PROGRAM

Rock'n Our Disabilities is a safe place for children and young adults with special needs to play team sports in a positive, self-esteem building environment.

The Program is for athletes who are physically active (ambulatory) but have difficulty keeping up with their peers. We emphasize the learning of basic sports and social skills for boys and girls, ages 8-30 years, with autism or other developmental disabilities in Orange County, California.

For our athletes, our goals are to foster self-esteem, enhance social skills, and build friendships. For our families, our goals are to strengthen relationships, provide support and develop community.

Our athletes are typically unable to fully participate in their local neighborhood youth sports program due to one or more of the following challenges:

• Autism Spectrum Disorders;
• Learning Disabilities;
• Down Syndrome or Cerebral Palsy; and/or
• Other mild physical & emotional disabilities.

Programs are co-ed and offer participants an opportunity to build self-esteem, create friendships, experience teamwork and have lots of fun. Parent participation is encouraged so plan for an enjoyable experience for the entire family where long-lasting friendships are formed and everyone has fun and grows.
