Our Campus Programs

The Clemson Wheelchair Tennis Team was founded April 10, 2019 and is proud to be Clemson University’s first adaptive athletics team.

The team is housed in the Department of Parks, Recreation and Tourism Management's Adaptive Sports and Recreation, which is partnered with the Clemson Athletic Department for support in various ways. This partnership is unique in the world of adaptive athletics, and highlights Clemson University’s aim for inclusive excellence.

The team is currently looking to recruit future players. Please contact our program director, Ariel Bailey, for more information about joining the team at amalphr@clemson.edu or 704-530-4337.

The Clemson University Paralympic Soccer Program (CUPS) is seeking elite players to train in a 7v7 small-sided format while working toward their university degrees.

This program presents a unique opportunity to play the game of soccer in a competitive training environment while still receiving a quality education and a great university student experience.

Some of the top athletes will have the opportunity to receive scholarships in the form of an out-of-state tuition waiver to Clemson University (the equivalent to almost $23,000 per year), which can be renewed each year up to 4 years based on their academic performance.

This course examines the various sport and recreation opportunities available for individuals with disabilities, and prepares students to provide safe and appropriate sport and recreation activities across a variety of functional abilities. The accompanying lab provides students with opportunity to engage in hands on skill development associated with the provision of these activities. Upon completion of the course, students receive specialty adaptive sport certification from Blaze Sports America.
