2026 AB Show: Designing for More Inclusive Recreation Facilities

Join our team at the upcoming Athletic Business Show in Orlando, Florida. Principal and Sports Leader Arash Izadi, PLA, LEED AP BD+C, will present a session titled, “Every Body Belongs: Expanding Access Through Inclusive Recreation Programs and Facilities.”

He will be joined by Liz Henry, associate director of recreation, engagement at University of California San Diego, Kate Smith, director of parks and recreation for the City of West Sacramento, and Brian Smith, senior director of campus recreation at Georgia Tech.

This session will explore how campus and community recreation and wellness centers can go beyond the traditional model to serve all users through inclusive design and programming.

Attendees will walk away with an understanding of how these facilities have historically fallen short of serving some user groups and how they’re evolving to welcome participation across ages, abilities, and backgrounds.

Their session will be held on Tuesday, November 17 from 2:00 to 3:00 PM.
