Eastern Adaptive Sports (EAS) is a community where people can come to find fellowship, education, and life enhancement through sport. EAS is fostered by the idea that people with physical and cognitive challenges can live vibrant, active, healthy lives surrounded by family, friends and community who believe a disability is not a limitation. It is an opportunity.
Founded and staffed by people who live with and understand the many challenging facets a life with a disability can present. We are dedicated to seeking individual opportunities to change lives and ensure life driving purpose through sport, education and advocacy.

Eastern Adaptive Sports has many passionate and experienced local anglers willing to teach you and find those hidden holes that the lakes and streams have to offer. We have specialized vessels and barges for easy access to and from the water.
Skiing
WhThe beauty of skiing is that it can be done in so many amazing places here in New England, especially when partnering with the experienced adaptive ski schools located in the heart of our ski country. EAS has been fortunate to combine programs with the Spaulding Adaptive Ski Club. Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital transports 15-20 adaptive athletes alongside family members, physical and occupational therapists, some of which are graduate students honing their craft and others are seasoned professionals sharing their wealth of knowledge.
