While the world turns its attention to soccer, our Shepherd Strikers are already setting the pace. Sam Crenshaw of CBS Atlanta joined us at Shepherd Strikers' power soccer practice, capturing our athletes’ passion, skill, and determination. The segment spotlights coach Dustin Swofford, players Grant Moon and Scott Stokes, and the impact of adaptive sports at Shepherd Center. This story is about more than competition — it’s about life after injury or illness. Through recreation therapy and adaptive sports, our patients rediscover confidence, build community, and find new purpose. As Dustin put it best: “We make champions.” Currently, the Shepherd Strikers are competing in the 2026 USPSA MK Battery Conference Cup Championship Series Tournament. Wish them luck in the comments below as they chase the championship.
