Navy Wounded Warrior held the Adaptive Sports Team Trials at Naval Base Ventura County - Port Hueneme, Calif., March 25 - April 2, 2023.

Adaptive athletics and reconditioning programs, such as through the DoD Warrior Games, help recovering service members rebuild their strength and endurance, while also drawing inspiration from their teammates. Sports also help build self-esteem, lower stress levels, and allow service members to rejoin a team environment. All enrollees in Navy Wounded Warrior are encouraged to include adaptive athletics in their recovery plans.
Numquam Navigare Solus – Never to Sail Alone
