Sports Buddies is a mentorship program offered by Swiss Adaptive Sports Foundation in partnership with DSUSA that provides junior athletes, ages 8 to 18, with a sense of commitment and support from positive role models. The idea of the program is to pair junior athletes with an adult mentor with similar abilities and interests. Sports Buddies is in congruence with the Year Round Sports Program and is a once a month commitment from both the mentor and the athlete. Being a mentor is one of the most personally rewarding ways of giving back to your community. If interested please call (619) 336-1806 or email . All sports buddies must attend orientation and be fingerprint cleared through the assistance of the foundation.
