More about Clayton Frech
Clayton spent his professional years in many different sectors
but mostly in the business world. Around 2005, Clayton’s life
changed when his son was born with limb differences. Clayton
jumped into the adaptive world with his son Ezra. Being that
Clayton is really driven and passionate, he decided to leave the
corporate world behind, and take his aggressive, entrepreneurial
approach to solving the problems of access to sports, recreation,
and an active lifestyle for the adaptive tribe and he began Angel
City Sports.
Angel City Games presented by The Hartford
