Boccia
Boccia, for those who do not know, is a paralympic sport similar to bowls. Boccia is one of the most inclusive sports and is accessible for so many different people with varying disabilities. Our sessions focus on basic boccia skills, teamwork, communication, and there is a great fun and social aspect to the group!
