01What it does

What Metro Detroit Sled Hockey does

Mission

At Metro Detroit Sled Hockey our mission is to provide the opportunity for any disabled athlete to reach their full potential on and off the ice. We value skill development, teamwork, good sportsmanship and inclusivity. Our goals include growing the sport of sled hockey, advocating for appropriate level of play for all players and removing the financial barriers to playing the sport. Our players are all ages and skill level from I just learned to skate to paralympians Disabled athletes have less discretionary income due to their high medical costs (prosthesis, wheelchairs, supplies) and at the same time the cost of adaptive sports equipment is 10x more than regular sports equipment. These two factors can create a large barrier to participation. Your donations are critical to removing that barrier by funding ice rental for practice, tournament fees, equipment, hockey sticks, sled maintenance and new team sleds to be used by new players.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
