Orthopedic Centers of Colorado (OCC) and the Colorado Center of Orthopaedic Excellence (CCOE) are proud to announce a new partnership with Colorado Springs Sports & Social (CSSS), serving as the Exclusive Healthcare Sponsor for the 2026 season. This collaboration reflects OCC & CCOE’s ongoing commitment to supporting active lifestyles and providing high-quality orthopedic care to athletes and recreational competitors throughout Southern Colorado.

Colorado Springs Sports & Social hosts a variety of adult recreational leagues and tournaments throughout the year, bringing together athletes of all skill levels for sports like volleyball, kickball, flag football, soccer, softball, and more. Through this partnership, OCC and CCOE will be present at select tournaments and major events, where participants can connect with some of our orthopedic and sports medicine professionals.

At these events, athletes and league members may also see Certified Athletic Trainers from CCOE on-site to help support player safety and provide guidance for minor injuries or concerns during competition. OCC and CCOE will also host informational booths at some tournaments and large events, giving participants an opportunity to learn more about injury prevention, sports performance, and orthopedic care.

“Our mission has always been to help people stay active and return to the activities they love,” said leadership at the Colorado Center of Orthopaedic Excellence. “Partnering with Colorado Springs Sports & Social allows us to connect directly with the active community in Colorado Springs and support athletes who enjoy staying involved in recreational sports.”

Throughout the season, athletes participating in CSSS leagues may notice OCC and CCOE presence at events, on league shirts, and across event signage. The partnership helps bring trusted orthopedic care closer to the recreational sports community and provides athletes with resources to stay healthy, recover from injuries, and keep playing the sports they love.

Orthopedic Centers of Colorado and the Colorado Center of Orthopaedic Excellence have long supported active communities throughout Colorado. This partnership with Colorado Springs Sports & Social continues that commitment by helping local athletes stay healthy, competitive, and active year-round.
