We have started interacting and involved with people living with disabilities since

other able bodied. We had that opportunity to be involved with different
disabilities which gave us platform to learn more about them and their needs.

progressing them to Region V games and preparing them to the commonwealth
games and Olympic Games. Therefore early 2024 we believed that KADAC club
should be formed to meet the needs of these athletes.

KADAC is working with different groups of disabilities in track and field. ( athletics)
We have the following Para female athletes:
 Visually impaired which are classified into 3 categories
a) T11- Those who are totally blind.
b) T12 and T13 those who are partially sighted and differentiated by their degree of
their sight.
 Cerebral palsy; on wheel chairs and using crutches
 Physical disability; arm amputee, leg amputee
 Working with this group is more enjoyable and exciting as each group has
different challenges, though some are the same.

CHALLENGES
 Lack of accessible training venue- we are using a home team grounds, which is
not environmental friendly to both athletes.
  Lack and shortage of rightful equipment- the equipment are special equipment
and very expensive hence the club cannot manage to purchase them such as
racing wheelchair, seated set thrower, tethers, blind folder, and blade.
 Social and cultural barrier-stereotype, society believed that female Para athlete
are not meant for sports
 Some of the athletes are orphans and needy most of the time they depend on
social grant. They sometimes missed training because they don’t have transport
fare or sanitary pad.
 Lack of funds for training camps
 They face sexual harassment, discrimination, pregnancy, gender based violence
