Badminton programs.
Physical activity through educational, recreational and competitive badminton contents to us as a valid reason to fight a long list of deficiencies that call into question the happiness and welfare of persons with disabilities alternative, given that, minimum levels of fitness and coordination can be acquired gradually and with the fluidity that allows the enjoyment and practice since the beginning of the activity, the minimum skills for its implementation.
In this way, we will analyze the conditions for the implementation of badminton programs tailored to the needs of the physically disabled.
Porter Ellet, the great example
Here we see a video about Porter Ellet, basketball player on his high school team. It is the leading scorer (16 points on average) and the authentic leader of Wayne High School Badgers. And all this with one arm.
Ellet lost his right arm in an accident when he was a child. While it has only one arm, fight as one: scores, grab rebounds, steals balls and is the natural leader of the team.
The Porter, rather than a history of the sport, is a great example of overcoming that deserves applause. Ellet offset the loss of his arm with patience, practice and good work, as you can see in the video. It is an example.
Sport in autistic children.
Parents sometimes wonder what sport is best for a child with ASD. If your child is willing to participate in a sport that is not on this list and you will fit into your schedule, in your economy, let him try. Profits are, in varying degrees, in all sports, and if you like, will record and be happier.
Since autism seriously affects social and motor skills, sports most practiced team (football, basketball , handball) can be difficult for a child with an ASD and may be better to opt for an individual sport or a sport that is practiced in groups where interaction but not as intense and demanding. But this is a general idea:
Among the most popular sports for children with ASD
- Swimming. Swimming is probably the number one sport for children with autism. Many enjoy the sensation of the pool, the movements in the water, diving … also allowed to participate in a team where each swimmer competes individually, so you can learn to be part of a group without feeling the burden of difficulties communication or integration strategy team.
- Cross Country. It requires less communication skills that most sports equipment and a boy who runs well, even uncommunicative, is valued as an important member of the team.
- Riding. It is not uncommon that many children with autism find it easier to communicate with animals than with others and some children with ASD have excellent results as jockeys.
- Bowling. It may be due to the predictability of the plays: strips twice and feel or movement of the bowling ball falling or sliding down the track
- Cycling..Like many sports we are describing you can practice alone or in groups and competitively or just to enjoy it. It may take a bit longer to learn, but not particularly skillful you can enjoy the bike as any other child.
- Hiking. For many people with ASD, peace and silence of nature free from stress. Hiking, which can be an individual or group activity, it is an easy way to exercise and enjoy the countryside or in the mountains without the pressure of intense media impose.
- Martial Arts. Martial arts combine elements of predictability and clear rules with the challenge of physical interaction with others. For many children with autism, martial arts help develop physical skills (balance, strength) at the same time improving psychological characteristics (self-esteem, discipline).
