USA-Canada Paralympic Action!

Do you know about that one little out of the way restaurant that always serves up great food? Everybody has their favorite best-kept secret; that jealously guarded gem. Crossroads has our own secret that we've been trying hard to get the word out on, our USA National Paralympic Sitting teams. Both the men's and women's teams are here at Crossroads, training and playing friendly matches against Team Canada. Crossroads is so proud of the opportunity to host all four teams this year. See an article about the event on USA Volleyball's website here.
If you thought the ball moved quickly on your court, wait until you see the speed of the rallies on on the adaptive court, nestled in between courts 40 and 42. If you haven't had a chance to catch the action, go see the coed match, taking place on Sunday at 9:00am. Come support Team USA!
Live Video Available!

For the second consecutive year, Colorado Crossroads is streaming live video of matches on our feature court. You can tune in live or watch video of previous matches on demand at
