Programs

All of KEEN's programs are based on a single principle: pair a trained volunteer with an athlete and let them discover together how much they can do.


We require our volunteers to be fully vaccinated prior to joining us at an in-person session.

Programs are all open and unstructured, providing all of our Athletes the opportunity to have fun and be successful. KEEN programs are open to all youth ages 5-21 with physical or developmental disabilities. Certain programs are for select age groups only.


  • Absolutely Free
  • Volunteer-Run
  • Age Appropriate & Non-Competitive
  • Open, Unstructured and Flexible
  • Tailored for Each Athlete's Needs
  • Inclusive, Regardless of Severity of Disabilities


We have modified our program due to COVID-19, and have a variety of in-person options. 


We ask that:


  • All volunteers be fully vaccinated prior to joining our program and encourage all of our families and Athletes to get vaccinated if they are able to keep our community as safe as possible. 
  • Participants are encouraged to wear masks indoors.


Our most popular programs are listed below; this page does not include all programs.  For specific dates and times, please check the Current Schedule.  Registration for programs takes place quarterly, although, if you are interested in participating feel free to email us at
