Ballin'
It's Disability Awareness week at SUU and as one of the many activities that the school provided to raise awareness, they held a wheelchair basketball tournament! Now this is harder than you think. There are real rules:
- After every 2 "rolls" or about 6 feet you must dribble the ball.
- You can not be rolling when you shoot
- You cannot use your feet in any way to assist you or the ball
- Any contact with another persons wheelchair is a personal foul
- All other basketball rules apply (e.g. back court, out of bounds, 3 pointers)
It was so fun! And my team made it all the way to the quarter finals. Not too bad for a first timer!
