Adaptive Sports Program New Mexico

Adaptive Sports Program New Mexico Adaptive Sports in New Mexico Adaptive sports in the Southwest are popular because of its blue skies and generally warm day temperatures.

Yet it is the warm feel of the people involved in the Adaptive Sports Program that make outdoor recreation in the Southwest the absolute best! Since 1985, the Adaptive Sports Program has offered safe and supportive adaptive sports lessons for adults and children (five years & older) with a wide array of disabilities. Lessons take place in various locations around the beautiful state of New Mexico.

Founder, Ken Ley, was a research scientist at Lovelace and an adaptive skier himself. Although adaptive skiing was still relatively rare in the mid 80’s, Ken modeled the program after existing programs. With over 30 years of experience of providing adaptive sports services, ASP has become the largest adaptive skiing program in the state and has provided access to fun and therapeutic year-round recreation for thousands of children and adults. Our sports have expanded to include rock-climbing, watersports, archery and much more! Contact us to learn more about how you can get involved with ASP.

We have so many people to thank for making this year’s Snow Ball the most successful fundraiser in ASPNM history. We’ll be sharing our gratitude all week, and we’re kicking things off with our incredible keynote speaker, Alana Nichols, PLY.

Born and raised in Farmington, NM, Alana is a world-class, multi-sport Paralympian, advocate, and ASPNM alum whose journey reflects the power of adaptive sports, and the programs like ASPNM that help athletes reach these heights. Her resilience, honesty, and passion resonated deeply with everyone in the room, leaving a lasting impact on our community.

Thank you, Alana, for helping make the evening so meaningful!

Today we’re proud to recognize the inaugural National Adaptive Sports Day.

It’s a chance to celebrate what adaptive sports make possible, not just across the country, but right here at home.

At ASPNM, that shows up year-round.

On the mountain, where skiing and snowboarding create freedom, confidence, and those can’t-miss smiles.

On the wall, where athletes find strength, problem-solve, and push past what they thought was possible.

On the water, where kayaking, sailing, and paddleboarding bring a different kind of freedom, calm, and adventure.

Different places, same purpose, access and opportunity for all.

Adaptive sports aren’t just about getting outside. They’re about independence, community, and showing up fully as yourself.

We’re grateful to do this work alongside an incredible community of athletes, volunteers, and supporters.

Today, and every day, we celebrate you.

On the eve of our 2026 Snow Ball, we find ourselves reflecting with deep gratitude on the community that makes this work possible. To our sponsors, your support goes far beyond this one evening. You are opening doors, creating access, and helping ensure that children and adults with disabilities across New Mexico have the opportunity to experience the joy, confidence, and freedom that come through adaptive sports.

Because of you, our athletes are able to get on the mountain, on the water, and out into the world with the equipment, instruction, and encouragement they deserve. You are not just supporting an event, you are sustaining a mission and changing lives in a very real way.

As we gather tomorrow night, please know how much your partnership means to all of us at ASPNM. We are truly grateful and proud to celebrate alongside you.

Thank you all!

As the ski season comes to a close, we find ourselves reflecting on just how much our community means to us and how fortunate we are to provide the services we do. It is your support that makes it possible for us to continue enhancing the lives of children and adults with disabilities through recreation, not just in the winter, but all year long.

While it’s impossible to sum up an incredible ski season in just 30 seconds, we can sure try.

As the season officially comes to a close, we want to give a huge thank you to our friends at for everything you do to help make our programs possible.

Your support, partnership, and commitment mean the world to us, and we truly couldn’t do this without you.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.
