hard work, consistency, and community!

The Navigators Adaptive Track & Field Program is a high-impact, inclusive training environment where athletes of all abilities—whether just starting out or pursuing elite competition—can build confidence, strength, and lifelong skills through sport. With a focus on adaptive training, individualized coaching, and a strong team culture, we provide athletes with the tools and support needed to succeed both on and off the track.

Coaching & Training Approach

Navigators athletes benefit from a passionate coaching staff focused on helping them reach their full potential. Training is personalized based on classifications, abilities, and goals, ensuring athletes progress at their own pace. The coaching philosophy promotes hard work, consistency, and community, creating a supportive and inspiring environment.

Athletes receive:

  • Event-specific training in wheelchair and ambulatory racing, sprints, distance, and field events

  • Strength and conditioning to improve performance and prevent injury

  • Technique development for pushing mechanics, racing strategy, and throwing form

  • Mental performance coaching, goal setting, and competition preparation

  • Have a physical disability or mobility impairment
