1DegreeOutside is proud to join the Service Club of Andover and the Andover Chapter of the Knights of Columbus as Media Sponsor for the 2025 Special Field Games – a day of celebration, inclusion, and athletic achievement for athletes of all abilities and registration remains open for a few more days!
The event will take place on Saturday, September 20, 2025, at Northern Essex Community College’s Haverhill Campus, with Opening Ceremonies kicking off at 9 AM.
🏅 The Games bring together athletes of all ages and abilities for track-and-field-style events, soccer kicks, relays, throwing contests, and more. Every participant is cheered on by families, friends, and volunteers, making it one of the most inspiring community traditions in the Merrimack Valley.
🎤 This year’s Masters of Ceremony are Matt and Danielle Noyes, co-founders of 1DegreeOutside. Matt, who previously hosted the Special Field Games in Mashpee during his television career, reflects:
“The Special Field Games represent the very best of not only sports, but our community: courage, determination, joy, volunteerism and – above all – love for one another. Every athlete who participates inspires us, and we’re honored to play a role in celebrating their incredible accomplishments.”
The Service Club of Andover and the Andover Knights of Columbus have made this event possible for years, and they invite athletes, volunteers, and spectators to make this year’s Games the biggest yet.
