FACES OF THE HERD 🗣️🗣️🗣️ Meet Ben! (@benkunzle ) Born in Paraguay, raised in Weston, and proudly rooted in Miami for the past decade. Ben is a powerhouse in every sense: a realtor, a wheelchair rugby athlete, a leader in adaptive sports, and the founder of the Push On Foundation @pushonfoundation . He even launched South Florida’s wheelchair rugby team with the Wounded Warriors Abilities Ranch 💪🏼 Ben has been with the Herd since the very first week, and his connection to this community runs deep. He showed up thanks to his sister Giuli, who knew Kevin and Ivan from high school, but what made him stay was something bigger. From that first Thursday, he felt the spark of what the Herd could become. Over time, his partnership with Push On Foundation helped build an entire lane of inclusivity within our crew, welcoming adaptive athletes to join us every week. His presence didn’t just add to the Herd.. it helped shape the Herd One of the most powerful moments in Ben’s journey was pushing his wheelchair through his first half marathon. It wasn’t just about distance or speed, it was about proving to himself that strength can grow in the spaces where others only see limitations. That moment showed him not only what he was capable of, but what so many others can achieve when given community, support, and a chance! To Ben, the Herd is joy, connection, and belonging. “It’s a fun way for me to get active, make friends, and build community,” he says. His goals right now reflect the heart of who he is: striving to make Team USA for wheelchair rugby while continuing to grow adaptive sports across South Florida. He’s building a world where movement is accessible, where community is shared, and where everyone, no matter their journey, has a place. We’re endlessly grateful for the leader, friend, and light Ben is within the Herd. His strength, compassion, and vision make this community better in every way. We’re proud to run alongside him, grow with him, and support him 🗣️🗣️ #theherd #theherdmiami #bettertogether #aplaceforeverypace

We’re so happy to have been part of this event and we’re truly grateful to everyone who made it happen. It was amazing being at the SCI Health & Wellness Expo at Jackson Hospital! We had wheelchair challenges like making an infinity sign, racing to get on and off chairs quickly, and even played some adaptive pickleball. We gave out fun gifts and received many smiles ✨just want to say thank you to our amazing community for all the support. We’re always excited to give back! Keep pushing on Fam! #pushon SCIExpo #SpinalCordInjury #AdaptiveSports #JacksonHospital #CommunitySupport #PushonFoundation

Recognize this face? Ben Kunzle is an athlete, leader, and a powerful force in the adaptive sports world. Thanks to support from The Way Forward Foundation, Ben is now equipped with a brand new rugby wheelchair, built for impact, speed, and strategy. Ben doesn’t just play, he leads. Whether he's competing or championing inclusion, he reminds us that sports have the power to inspire, unite, and empower. At TWF, we proudly invest in community leaders like Ben because when you fuel someone's ability to push forward in sports, you help them push forward in life. Here’s to more tournaments, more teamwork, and more trailblazing ahead. #TheWayForward #BenKunzle #RugbyWheelchair #AdaptiveAthlete #PushForward #MobilityMatters #TeamTWF #ParalysisSupport #SportsForAll
