 Well finally the sport itself is not well known. The Brainerd Adaptive Floor Hockey team is off to a solid start this season. They're undefeated and the defending state champs hungry for a repeat. Clayton Castle has more. Just a year removed from winning a state title, the Brainerd Warriors Adaptive Floor Hockey team is rolling in 2017-18 with an undefeated record. While you will find packed stands at the team's games, not many people know what Adaptive Floor Hockey is. It's a state high school league sport that's created for student athletes that have some type of physical impairment whether that be a heart condition or spinal issue or you know just a variety of other things to give them a place to compete. The current team boasts so many strengths that it's easy to rattle off just some of them. I think the communication and the different skill levels and the grade levels are all strengths on this team. In Adaptive Floor Hockey student athletes can begin playing as early as seventh grade so the chemistry among this group of seniors is undeniable. We have three seniors on the team that have been on the team for at least five years and we just work really well together. For the players playing on the team goes beyond the wins and losses. It's about the opportunity they might not otherwise have and for that it means a lot. It creates an atmosphere that would otherwise kids that are adapted wouldn't be able to be a part of. It creates a sport that everyone can get along with. The Warriors face a tough Robbinsdale Hopkins Mound West team next Monday at home. Reporting in Brainerd Clayton Castle, Lakeland News.
