Built from Purpose. Driven by Power.
Tread Hurling was founded in 2023 by Shunn Spademan and LaMorris Hawkins, after being deeply inspired by the story of a promising collegiate football athlete who lost his mobility due to a brain tumor. Moved by the athlete’s strength and spirit, they asked a powerful question: Can we build a sport that’s just as intense as football — but safer, smarter, and more empowering?
That question became the spark behind a revolutionary new sport: Tread Hurling — where every play builds strength, every rule protects players, and every athlete becomes a force.
The First True Hybrid Sport
Tread Hurling combines the power of football, the explosiveness of wrestling, the stamina of track, the strategy of basketball, and the full-body demand of CrossFit. Instead of a ball, players use a 27–30 lb Hurling Wheel, which they must hurl, roll, and drive across the field into the end zone — all while defenders try to stop them.
Our Mission
At Tread Hurling, our mission is to create a high-impact, community-driven sport that pushes athletes to their limits while protecting their bodies and shaping their futures.
Every Hurlete, coach, and club is part of something bigger than just a game — they’re part of a global movement to redefine modern athleticism.
