Haitian Amputee Soccer Team

A Haitian amputee soccer team, many of whose players lost limbs in the horrific January 2010 earthquake in Port-au-Prince, brought its game to Stamford in a demonstration match with players from Trinity Catholic High School at 2 p.m. October 20.



Guests at the scrimmage included Stamford Mayor Michael Pavia, Most. Reverend William E. Lori, Bishop of the Bridgeport Diocese, and Trinity Catholic Principal Tony Pavia.



The “Haitian Inspiration Tour” is also bringing amputee soccer clinics to wounded American soldiers who have lost limbs in the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq throughout mid-October.
