Sporting Events

All of Marklund’s sporting events are designed to provide maximum fun with maximum safety and ensure clients achieve the “team experience.” Recreational therapists are experts at modifying sporting games for clients to enjoy. Exceptional sports at Marklund include:

Downhill skiing: Therapists set up cones and clients throw a large foam die to determine if they advance or not. At the end of the course, clients get to touch snow for the full experience of snow skiing.

Soccer: Clients use a large therapy ball; they are encouraged to hit the ball with their hands or feet to score the goal.
Clients also play modified versions of baseball, basketball, football, hockey, and Olympic sporting events.
