More Than Just the Game

Sport isn’t just about competition.
It’s about rhythm, release, and belonging.
It’s about finding your pace — and knowing there’s space for it.

But for many disabled people, access to sport still comes with barriers:

• Facilities that aren’t step-free or sensory-friendly
• Equipment that doesn’t adapt to different bodies or needs
• Coaches who haven’t been trained in inclusive practice
• A culture that still sees “disability sport” as niche, not normal

At Access Trails UK, we believe that sport is a trail of its own — one that should be open, visible, and welcoming from the first step.

So we’re spotlighting:

• Adaptive sports like wheelchair tennis, boccia, frame running, and inclusive dance
• Accessible venues that offer hoists, quiet hours, and trained staff
• Community clubs that centre inclusion, not exception
• Resources like Scope’s guide to disability sport and Access Sport’s inclusive programmes
• And clubs like Dundee Dragons, Leicester Tigers and the Amsterdam Terminators

What’s a sport or movement practice that’s helped you feel more at home in your body, or more connected to others?

Share a moment, a memory, or a movement that mattered.

And for the slower reflections on rhythm, rest, and reclaiming joy, Bloggyness is always open.
