In partnership with the Martin Richard Foundation, the Club offers a series of “Challenger” sports which allows young people with developmental and physical disabilities to enjoy the full benefits of soccer, basketball, baseball, and swimming participation in a safe athletic environment structured to their abilities. Volunteer Buddies assist the athletes throughout each season. We are always happy to welcome individuals (youth and adults) who would like to serve as Buddies.

With a one-on-one student to teacher ratio, swimmers can develop and improve their skills in an environment structured to their individual needs. Our goal is to provide a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment where every child can experience the joy of swimming. This program is exclusively for youth with disabilities. *Spots are limited. Pre-registration is required.*

An introductory adaptive dance program that is designed to make the joy of dance accessible to children of all abilities.

Occupational Therapy students from BU teach this class as part of their Global Leadership Experience. *Pre-registration is required for both programs.*

Members also build positive relationships with law enforcement officers through PAL’s Junior Police Academy.
