The Disabled Sports USA SummerFest Tour is a nation-wide series of events and programs offered through Disabled Sports USA, its chapters and partnering organizations from the Spring through the Fall months. It is the only event of its kind, providing youth and adults with disabilities across the country with state-of-the-art instruction, adaptive equipment and opportunities to compete in a variety of athletic events.
In addition to providing grants to local chapter programs for the purchase of adaptive sports equipment and make local programs more accessible to community programs on an ongoing basis, Disabled Sports USA also works with national sports bodies to provide training for recreation instructors that want to provide quality events for clients with disabilities.

Chapters of Disabled Sports USA are eligible to apply for grants as part of the Disabled Sports USA SummerFest Tour during the application period.
