NEW HARTFORD – The Gaylord Sports Association is Connecticut’s largest adaptive sports program for people who are physically disabled or visually impaired. Katie Joly, the manager of the program for about eight years, says that, “it’s never too late to try something new”.
Operated through donors, corporate sponsors, grants and fundraising events, the GSA has been able to create an environment for athletes to feel confident and strive for success. In operation for the last 15 years, the program’s volunteers have been offering a wide variety of different sports to adults, ranging from introductory to competitive team sports.
