Unified Sports pairs students with and without disabilities on the same teams, fostering connection, inclusion, and genuine friendship. As hundreds of students took the field, the matches were less about competition and more about community. Smiles were constant, high-fives endless, and the cheers could be heard from every corner of the park.

“Unified Soccer is one of those events that reminds you why we do what we do,” said Kara Toone, Director of Davis Education Foundation. “The joy you see on the faces of these students—players and partners alike—is the purest form of unity. It’s what happens when kindness becomes the goal.”

The event was made possible through the generous support of Big O Tires, proudly owned and operated by the Kent and Crystal Coleman family. Their commitment to community has kept the Unified program growing year after year, giving every student a chance to experience what it means to belong.

From dazzling goals to heartfelt hugs, Unified Soccer showed that inclusion isn’t just a value—it’s an action. Every pass, cheer, and moment of connection proved once again that when everyone plays, everyone wins.
