Nearly 20 years of creating accessible athletic opportunities, confidence, and community for Deaf and hard-of-hearing youth.
Deaf Sports Academy was founded in 2007 to give young athletes the chance to learn, compete, and thrive without communication barriers.
From our first soccer and gymnastics programs to basketball leagues, coaching, and school support, DSA has always been about opportunity.

Helping families find programs, coaches, and pathways that fit their athletes.
Accessible instruction, teamwork, and skill development across sports.
One-on-one and small-group coaching focused on growth and confidence.
Supporting effective communication and Deaf athlete development.
Connecting schools, recreation departments, and athletic organizations.
For nearly two decades, DSA has supported Deaf athletes not only through coaching and programs, but also through school uniform sponsorships and donations of sports supplies.
DSA helped provide athletic uniforms for programs at Texas School for the Deaf, Arizona State Schools for the Deaf and the Blind, California School for the Deaf, Riverside, Phoenix School for the Deaf, and Marlton School for the Deaf.
Our community support has also included donations of sports balls and water bottles to communities outside the United States. We hope to document more of these stories as historical details become available.
