SA Xtreme is a sport division of Kinetic Kids designed for athletes with physical disabilities, including: a limb deficiency or amputation; short stature; neurological condition that affects motor coordination such as cerebral palsy or traumatic brain injury; impaired muscle power resulting from a spinal cord injury, spina bifida, or muscular dystrophy; or visual impairment.
SA Xtreme is a Kinetic Kids sport division as programs follow the US National Governing Body rules and standards to set athletes up for success in the para pipeline! Sport-specific coaches adapt programming to participants’ ability levels by providing expertise to all participating, from beginners to those ready for more advanced development. Our experienced coaches work with each team to help athletes enhance their skills and understanding of their sports. Athletes in this division may compete locally, regionally or nationally.
Participation in the SA Xtreme division is an opportunity for progression both on and off the field. In season, the athletes commit to a demanding practice schedule which is necessary to compete in para sports. We are currently recruiting new athletes to add to our teams. If your athlete is ready to test their limits, contact SAX@kinetickidstx.org today.
