With our roots dating back to the Syracuse Flyers wheelchair basketball team founded in 1979, Move Along has come a long way! Our organization still hosts to the Flyers basketball team, as well as home to a number of other activities, including sled hockey, paddling, cycling, and new in 2017: tennis! We are a registered 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization and we serve the communities of greater Syracuse, Oswego, and Central New York.
Our Commitment to Education is embodied by all that we do, and especially in our Inclusive Sports Training programs offered as a roadshow to local schools and organizations. Interested in bringing adapted sports and recreation training to your community? Search no further!
Serving our Veterans has become a more pronounced mission of ours, as we team up with local veteran service organizations, and can offer significant assistance to veterans seeking to participate in any of our programs through the generosity of VA: Mission Re-Defined.
