In-person courses that support coaches working with athletes with a disability are extremely limited in Canada. The good news is that the growth of online courses has helped make learning more accessible and affordable.

Soccability Canada has the pleasure of working each year with students across Ontario using accessible soccer as a vehicle for awareness and insight.
