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.

Alpine skiing and its rules

Alpine skiing is practiced worldwide and features seven disciplines: downhill, slalom, giant slalom, super-G, super combined, team events and most recently snowboard. Athletes combine speed and agility while racing down slopes at speeds of around 100km/h.

Competition accommodates male and female athletes with a physical impairment such as spinal injury, cerebral palsy, amputation, les autres conditions and blindness/visual impairment.

Athletes compete in three categories based on their functional ability, and a results calculation system allows athletes with different impairments to compete against each other.

Skiers with blindness/visual impairment are guided through the course by sighted guides using signals to indicate the course to follow. Some athletes use equipment that is adapted to their needs including single ski, sit-ski or orthopaedic aids.

Features that make the paddle ideally suited for working with groups with disabilities.

– Pitch: small, with one or two inputs, which prevents the dispersion of the student and helps focus attention.

– Lots of tools with many possibilities of varying size  weight facilitates effective adaptation by type of disability.

– Ability to use a lot of phones with different size, color, weight, which makes it easier to practice.

– Ability to include a lot of adjustments.

Adapted Material: Low cost cross trainer

Here we show the adjustment that has been made on a cross trainer so that it can be used by a disabled child.This means that the child can move with the aid of a motor, without this help they would not be able to move the machine. They are suspended in the air whit a harness  ensuring their safety and provides them whit more control over their bodies.

This adaptation make is possible for people to move their legs and remain standing. It is made with inexpensive materials, so the price tag is an attraction.

There is a Url which you can watch to see more interesting, low cost machinery… Enter the webpage: http://lasonrisadelucia.com  for more information.

Catches of each team to decide who the winner will be counted.

ADAPTATIONS:

  • When pairing participants will take into account that couples are as homogeneous as possible. Close attention to avoiding trapping students who move on crutches or in wheelchairs collide with peers or endanger their physical integrity be provided. It was therefore allow the student with mobility disabilities can trap an opponent with a touch without having to grab to catch it.

After the sculpture this must guess it is. Then the roles are exchanged.
