Stepping Up
to the Plate
There is a large group of Canadians
that modern society tends to overlook. There are many
disabled individuals that face barriers and obstacles not
encountered by able-bodied Canadians.
Calgary Rotary Challenger Park is a barrier free meeting
and recreational facility that is accessible to all people
regardless of their age or ability. But it is more
than that! It is a model of community inclusiveness
where persons with disabilities can play next to and with
their able-bodied peers. We welcome individuals and
organizations to run their programs at Calgary Rotary Challenger
Park.
Meeting the Challenge Together
Calgary Rotary Challenger Park
is the result of a partnership of individuals and organizations
representing more than 100,000 people in the community.
Through this ongoing combined effort, the Park has become
and will remain a thriving success for Calgary.
Located on 23 acres of land provided by the Calgary Airport
Authority, the Park consists of baseball/softball diamonds,
dressing rooms, a soccer/football field, an 400 metre running
track, basketball courts, tennis courts, administration
building, picnic areas, a playground, 1500 Square foot meeting
space, concession and other amenities.
Our Park
Includes 2 ball diamonds, A

courts. The Jim & Pearl Centre houses Park Administration,
