Arizona Health & Physical Education members—we have some exciting news!
🚨 WE ARE FULL!
The session proposal submission link is officially CLOSED because we have reached capacity! Every available session has been filled, and we could not be more excited about the amazing lineup of learning opportunities coming your way at the 2026 AZHPE State Convention.
Take a look at the Schedule at a Glance to see just how much we have packed into one incredible day! From adapted physical education and inclusion to physical literacy, outdoor activities, classroom management, innovative games, cycling, sport-specific activities, and so much more, there is truly something for everyone.
And remember—the schedule is subject to change, but at this time we are thrilled to offer you a full day of professional learning, networking, collaboration, and fun with physical educators and professionals from across Arizona.
🤝 MORE THAN JUST PROFESSIONAL LEARNING
One of the things that makes the AZHPE State Convention special is the opportunity to connect with other educators who understand the work you do every day.
Come share ideas, learn from one another, discover new strategies, and build relationships with physical educators from around the state. This is your opportunity to leave the convention with new ideas, practical resources, and connections that you can take right back to your students and schools.
🛍️ MEET OUR AMAZING EXHIBITORS & PARTNERS!
And don’t forget to make time for the Exhibit Hall!
We have an incredible group of vendors, organizations, and community partners traveling to Arizona from around the country to be part of our convention. Our exhibitors represent areas including physical education, health education, fitness, sports, wellness, adapted physical education, financial education, and student development.
But this year, we’re taking things beyond the traditional Exhibit Hall!
Our exhibitors won’t just be there to show you their products and resources. Several will be providing fun, interactive product demonstrations through specialized convention sessions, giving you an opportunity to experience new equipment, programs, activities, and resources firsthand. Check out the list below!
Be ready to try something new, ask questions, connect with representatives, and discover resources you can bring back to your school.
