RallyCap Sports Expands to Illinois with New Chapter Launch and "Frisbee Day" Community Event

Illinois – RallyCap Sports, a national nonprofit organization dedicated to providing inclusive sports experiences for individuals with disabilities, is proud to announce the official launch of its newest chapter: Illinois RallyCap Sports, based in Sheridan, Illinois.

The chapter will kick off its inaugural season with Frisbee Day, a free, adaptive outdoor sports event designed for young adults with special needs. The event will be held on Saturday, July 20, 2025, at a private, accessible outdoor field located in Sheridan, IL.

About the Event:
Frisbee Day offers individuals ages 18–35 an opportunity to engage in fun, modified frisbee activities in a welcoming, supportive environment. Volunteers trained by RallyCap will assist participants, ensuring that everyone can enjoy the day at their own pace. The event will also feature sensory-friendly zones, free t-shirts for early registrants, and refreshments.

"Our mission at RallyCap Sports is simple yet powerful: to create opportunities where individuals with special needs can experience the joys of sports, build friendships, and be part of a team," said Val Montgomery, Chapter Leader for Illinois RallyCap Sports. "We are so excited to launch this chapter and celebrate inclusion, movement, and fun with the greater Illinois community."
