About this event
Power Soccer is featured on the Project Awaken Get Active calendar as part of adaptive sports and recreation programs from the Great Lakes Adaptive Sports Association (GLASA), which supports athletes with physical and visual disabilities from first-timers to Paralympians. Project Awaken brings together listings from trusted Chicago-area partners so people with spinal cord injuries, mobility disabilities, and visual impairments can find welcoming ways to get active, connect with others, and try something new.
Events like this typically welcome participants of varying abilities along with their families, friends, sighted guides, and volunteers, and many are free to attend. If you are new to adaptive sports or recreation, it helps to reach out to the host organization ahead of time with any access questions, ask whether specialized equipment is provided, and bring a companion if that makes you more comfortable. Taking that first step, showing up, asking, trying, is what getting active is all about.
Please confirm the date, time, location, cost, and any registration requirements on the official event or organizer page before attending, as details can change. To find more opportunities, explore our full events calendar, browse Get Active grants and resources, or join the Get Connected peer-support community.
