MORE THAN A QUARTER CENTURY HAS PASSED
SINCE WORLD T.E.A.M. SPORTS CREATED ITS
FIRST INCLUSIVE SPORTING CHALLENGE, JOINING
TOGETHER DISABLED AND ABLE-BODIED
ATHLETES. SINCE THE FOUNDATION OF THE RIDE
ACROSS AMERICA, A 1987 BICYCLING EVENT THAT
INCLUDED DEVELOPMENTALLY DISABLED ATHLETES,
WORLD T.E.A.M. SPORTS HAS GROWN INTO A
NATIONAL LEADER AND SETS THE HIGHEST
STANDARD FOR OTHER SPORTS ORGANIZATIONS.
