Sports Plus helps children, teens and young adults realize their potential. Our programs are positive, successful places to learn sports, fitness and social skills. Each class has a player to coach ratio of no higher than four to one, with swim classes being one to one. Our curriculum is derived from thousands of hours of experience and research by a team of special educators, therapists, trainers, parents and coaches. It is ever changing and evolving.  

For teens and young adults who have spent significant time in Sports Plus programs, our unique Teen & Young Adult Social Program takes place monthly, with a variety of different activities and locations.

    SPORTS PLUS is a non-profit organization that offers  uniquely structured programs for participants ages 5 to 26, with autism spectrum disorders, ADD/ADHD and other developmental disabilities.

    The SPORTS PLUS swim program features a blend of traditional and unique skill development techniques, carried out by experienced instructors and their assistants who are backed by special education professionals.

    SPORTS PLUS offers one-on-one private lessons. Also upon approval, we offer a one hour swim team for those that are ready for a more endurance based practice.

    Our staff is fully capable of accommodating participants with a wide variety of swimming skill levels. Whether the initial goal for your child is comfort and safety in the water, acquiring basic swimming skills, stroke technique and improvement or swim team training, SPORTS PLUS has a class for you! Fun, proper technique, social skills and safety are stressed at all classes.

    Each class features customized instruction that is designed to be enjoyable and successful for all participants.  Typical siblings are also encouraged to enroll. The end result is a safe, successful, rewarding and exciting physical and social experience for participants and their families.

    Please note that not all registrations may be accepted. Staffing is the driving factor. We are working very hard to accommodate all families. Thank you for your understanding.

    The important friendships and social connections made in SPORTS PLUS programs are leveraged and brought to the next level in our SPORTS PLUS  social programs. While we need to physically distance during these challenging times, coming together socially is more important than ever. Our remote programs are designed to provide continuously expanding social and learning outlets. Participants are fully integrated in a virtual setting — we do things that teens and young adults want to do in settings that immerse them interactively with their peers.

    These programs are reserved for teens and young adults.  As they have in the past, participants can be together, be themselves, meet and make social connections in an interactive remote setting, and enjoy activities that will bring them together.

    The program is small and personal. The participants will feel comfortable and we work hard to help them to engage, improve their social skills, and most importantly, have fun! Sports Plus coaches and staff will be present to help and facilitate. Numerous experienced and well trained peer volunteers will also be present to assist and interact with our participants.

    Our Live Virtual Social and Karaoke Night program will be held on Friday, December 13th, from 6:30pm - 8:00pm.

    DJ Robert will be joining us!

    Bottled water and snacks will be served. 

    As these programs are very popular, we encouraged you to register immediately. Preference will be given to registrations in the order that they are received. If you have any questions or need more information please contact the SPORTS PLUS  program at (301)452-3781 or by e-mail at info@playsportsplus.org.

    This program is non-refundable.

    A portion of the costs of this program have been provided by a grant from the J.G. Murray Family Foundation
