This past weekend Slippery Rock University hosted a wheel chair rugby tournament. It was a great event that was really uplifting. Thanks to many technology upgrades its possible for people with disabilities to play sports that they never thought they could, such as Rugby. Now with many other new technology upgrades they can even compete in extreme sports such as mountain biking and skiing. Thanks to upgrades in types of wheels and designs for these wheelchairs it is possible for people to compete with others with out disabilities. Thanks to the engineering of many people, every one has a chance to compete in a sport which is a great opportunity because of how sports help to better people.

This sounds sweet, but you should have attended class today, our lovely professor dropped a bombshell on us today.
ReplyDeleteI actually worked this event last year! It was such a great event to see, and shows that anyone can do anything if they put their mind to it!
