With improved gear, customization, and power-assist options, more people can get outside, stay active, and ride alongside friends.

Three female Para ice hockey players came together at the Milano Cortina 2026 Paralympic Winter Games to reflect on the past, present and future of women’s Para ice hockey on International Women’s Day this Sunday (8 March). 

Their shared dream: to compete in a women’s tournament at a future Winter Paralympics – ideally, as early as at the French Alps 2030.

MINNEAPOLIS — Liam Chau is a popular kid at Stillwater High School. A senior with a permanent smile, Chau rarely makes it an hour without students waving, stopping to say hi and chatting. Jill, Liam’s mom, said a simple trip to Target can take more than an hour because of Liam’s lofty standing within the community.

It wasn’t always like this for Liam, who is naturally outgoing. The fist bumps, the hugs and interactions with other students weren’t as overt.

Over the years, his network of friends grew. It came via the Unified Sports program at Stillwater, a Special Olympics program that supports teams composed of students with and without intellectual disabilities.

Liam has Down syndrome.

Togetherness.

Holidays exist to make ordinary acts feel significant and shared. Thanksgiving is a meal we could have on any old Thursday. New Year's is a number changing on a calendar. What makes holidays matter is the collective agreement to mark it, to do it all together.

Simplicity.

A seed going into dirt, by itself, is about as modest as human action gets. It costs almost nothing, takes minutes, and requires no expertise. You can do it in a paper cup on a windowsill in an apartment with no outdoor space, and I know this because people send us photos of exactly that every year.
