In this episode of PSN, hosts Alex Smyth and Nathan Clement are joined by AMI's Kelly MacDonald, who shares his deep history with goalball and vision impairment (V.I.) sports. From childhood experiences at W. Ross Macdonald School to his thoughts on current media coverage of adaptive sports, Kelly dives into the impact of grassroots exposure and what para sport needs to grow. The episode also highlights Nathan’s exciting recap of Shim’s Ride, a unique paracycling time trial event in Vancouver. He outlines a bold vision to turn the city into a hub for para sport competition—with hopes for deeper athlete fields, classification systems, and international participation. Plus, Alex quizzes Nathan with a fun and challenging round of "Guess That Para Sport,”.
