Canton's Madison Hoy volunteers at Adaptive Basketball Clinic

Posted

Madison Hoy, of Canton, was one of 19 SUNY Oneonta who volunteered at the annual Adaptive Basketball Clinic on campus, created through a partnership between the Sport and Exercise Science department and EDD Adaptive Sports. 

The event, held in the Chase Gym on April 14 allowed area individuals who have varying intellectual and adaptive disabilities to hone their skills in basketball through different technical and shooting drills.

Hoy is studying Sport Management and is part of the class of 2027.

Over the past few years, SUNY Oneonta's Sport and Exercise Sciences department has developed a relationship with EDD Adaptive Sports, a non-profit organization that offers adaptive sports programs to children and adults with any disability. EDD Adaptive Sports' programs allow people of all ages to participate in a variety of free athletic and sport-related activities, including basketball, biking, kayaking, soccer, swimming, pickleball, rowing and yoga. This was the second year that SUNY Oneonta and EDD Adaptive Sports worked together to make the basketball clinic a successful day for everyone involved.
