UASA partners with U.S. Assoc. of Blind Athletes to expand opportunities for blind soccer! At the 2026 National Adaptive Soccer Camp, athletes who are blind/visually impaired were led by coaches, Abigail and Moose to experience Blind Soccer.

Both leaders commented on the importance of having an open mind on the blind soccer pitch. This modified form of the traditional 11v11 game needs to be experienced firsthand to understand fully. Blackout eyeshades level the abilities of field, while fully-sighted goalkeepers and guides stationed strategically around the pitch support gameplay.

We are proud to continue our collaboration with the US Association of Blind Athletes and look forward to seeing Blind Soccer in LA28!

🥅 More than 90 athletes, coaches, referees, staff, and volunteers were outfitted by FORZA as part of the 2026 UASA National Adaptive Soccer Camp.

Since camp, kits have been making their way to participants across the United States. The gear is now part of adaptive soccer happening well beyond one weekend.
Thank you, FORZA, for supporting the 2026 National Adaptive Soccer Camp and helping outfit this national community.

So all may play.

The National Adaptive Soccer Camp was so much more than your typical sports camp. High-performance athletes, coaches, and referees from 21 states came together to learn pivotal lessons from other disability pathways. By adopting new strategies, local leaders can deliver a more inclusive experience to members of their respective communities.

Additionally, pan-disability clinics were open to the public to share the sport at the local level. In this way, UASA had the opportunity to connect and provide more information with prospective athletes and their families.

Along with our friends and partners, we hope to raise the bar on what is expected from a sports camp. Follow us for more stories on adaptive soccer.

Inclusion is at the core of our mission and programs.

Central to our goal, the National Adaptive Sports Camp held trainings for newer coaches to develop their skills across multiple disability pathways. Coaches had the opportunity to come together, identify barriers, and share their respective strategies with peers.

To maximize opportunities at the local level, UASA also hosted pan-disability soccer clinics that are open to the public. We hope to increase attention and access so that more kids can fall in love with soccer and enhance their skills.

Check out our other reels to hear more stories from camp!

If athletes are the heart of our competitive soccer programs, our referees are the backbone that gives us support and stability.

UASA referees are relentlessly dedicated on the field, rushing to each scrimmage or match, leaving their insight on the game, and having to determine the nuances of rules across multiple disability pathways. During the National Adaptive Soccer camp, Head Instructor Jeff led a crew of referees from across the country through adaptive training sessions, including our friend Dan, to share knowledge and build the sport.

The common thread through all our conversations was a shared love of soccer. Each person wants to do their role so that more people can play and enjoy the sport. The feeling is contagious with this group, and we are so grateful to work with such a dedicated support crew.
