Four years ago in Oklahoma City, father and son Clayton and
Ezra Frech changed the game of play for all.
Ezra Frech, born with congenital limb differences, asked his
dad why did they have to travel to Oklahoma City to run, jump, and throw
things. No places were located in Southern California where a kid who simply
had the joy for sports was able to play the game.
One year later in 2014, they found a facility and
programming partner in UCLA Recreation. A one-of-a-kind competition and event
experience for youth and adults with physical disabilities was established.
Frech's passion for sports aided individuals whom similar to him with physical
impairments had no access in Southern California to participate in athletics.
In 2015, the first Angel City Games were held, with over
1,300 attendees and 150 athletes present. This year's Angel City Games, the
pursuit continues to diminish disability and empower the adaptive sports
movement.
Sport Court of Southern California supports Angel City

changer for your facility, making courts accessible for all.
