Welcome to the team! 🙌 We’re excited to welcome our first-ever cohort of #UASA interns: Chuong Pham, Dana Parrott, and Jake Birecki. Together, they’re helping expand our capacity across storytelling, events, and community impact.

The game we love ❤️⚽️ #HappyValentinesDay Image Descriptions: A celebratory Valentine’s-themed carousel featuring adaptive soccer athletes from UASA. The poem unfolds across the slides: “Roses are red” with action photos of athletes in red uniforms, “Violets are blue” with athletes in blue uniforms, followed by “Soccer’s for me, soccer’s for you. Period.” Images show players of all disabilities and positions competing indoors, using crutches, playing in power soccer chairs, goalkeeping, celebrating, and posing with soccer balls. #UASA #SoAllMayPlay #ValentinesDay #AdaptiveSoccer #SoccerForAll
