Make a gift
Your generosity will empower adaptive athletes to compete in—and fall in love with—the sport of beach volleyball by advancing programs, funding specialized equipment for athletes, and supporting training clinics.
Specialized equipment
On top of training, competition fees, and travel, adaptive athletes often require specialized equipment. For many, competing at the highest levels of beach volleyball can cost an arm and a leg—and then some.
-
A functional, body-powered prosthetic arm begins at about $10,000, while more advanced arms cost beyond $100,000.
-
A prosthetic leg that enables running costs about $15,000, with computerized legs soaring above $70,000.
-
Sand finds a way. Wear and tear—especially the kind caused by beach volleyball—can force individuals to replace their prosthetic devices every few years.
-
To get the most out of training, adaptive athletes often require specialized training equipment that makes certain exercises possible and reduces the risk of injury.
Your gift can help provide grants for training equipment and prostheses that allow adaptive athletes to compete at the highest levels of beach volleyball.
