Marketplace All-in-One · Sled hockey's Declan Farmer makes us smart about the Winter Paralympics · 24 Feb 2026 podcast

Played it for fun as a kid and then got serious with it within a few years.

Yeah, I didn't know what the Paralympics were when I first started playing sled hockey.

I don't think I even saw them until 2010, which was the Vancouver Games.

I was 12 years old at the time.

So I think around that time, I started playing it more seriously, going to tournaments outside of, you know, my home state of Florida.

And that's when I realized like, hey, I'm like,

you know, pretty good for my age group here.

And I think I can make a run at this.

I started getting more motivated, training, skating more.

And I made the Sochi Paralympic team when I was, I was 16 at those games.

So I was a sophomore in high school.

And that's kind of when things got started.

And then I'm, you know, training for Milan, which will be my fourth games here.

Canada is definitely our biggest rival.

It's similar to a lot of the other divisions of hockey, the men's women's standup teams.

I mean, everyone involved with hockey, at least as familiar with the four nations cup this past year where us and Canada, you know, they have the big fights and, and all that stuff.

And,

So it's definitely a similar rivalry in sled hockey where Canada and U.S.

kind of are each other's toughest competition these days.

We play them a lot.
