Jason has been playing Quad Rugby for over 10 years.
Jason has been playing Quad Rugby for over 10 years. He was first introduced to the game while in rehab at Craig Hospital in Englewood, CO. He first tried out for a developmental national team in 1999. After being cut from four full national teams, he finally made a developmental team in 2005 and the full Paralympic team in 2006. Jason earned a gold medal in Beijing as a member of the 2008 U.S.Paralympic Team and was named U.S. Quad Rugby Association’s Athlete of the Year for 2008. He’d like to continue on with the team to the 2012 Paralympics in London.
Off the court, Jason has earned a dual masters degree with an MBA and MS in Marketing from the University of Colorado. He has helped to run his club team as president of the Denver Harlequins Wheelchair Rugby team for the past 10 years. He has also served on the United States Quad Rugby Association as vice president for the past five years. He owns his own company, Spellbynder, which focuses on public speaking.
Jason says playing rugby has been the biggest influence in returning to an active lifestyle and recapturing life after his injury.
