The Friends of Fairfax Falcons supports the Fairfax Falcons Paralympic Sports Team. This group provides a variety of adapted sports experiences to youth with physical disabilities in the Northern Virginia/DC metro area (DMV). Through adaptive sports, athletes improve physical fitness, communication skills, and self-esteem and build life-long friendships.
The Friends of Fairfax Falcons is dedicated to raising awareness of the program and identifying financial support to offset the high cost of participating in adaptive sports. The cost of a basketball chair is more than $2,500. Our teams have to travel to play, often putting in more than 1,500 miles per year. We have more than 50 families across the DMV who have become a community supporting each other through our children’s medical needs and successes.
