Athletics

At the West Virginia Schools for the Deaf and the Blind (WVSDB), we believe sports are for every student, regardless of hearing or vision level. Our athletic programs empower Deaf, Hard of Hearing (DHH), Blind, and Visually Impaired (VI) students to compete, grow, and lead. With expert coaching, adapted training environments, and a focus on accessibility, we help students build confidence, resilience, and community through athletics.
