Wheelchair Basketball
Guilherme Henrique
Alves Silva da Costa
Wheelchair basketball is basketball played
by people in wheelchairs and
is considered one of the major disabled sports practiced.
Wheelchair basketball first emerged around 1946
in the USA, developed by injured servicemen from World War II. Most were former
able-bodied players who wanted to continue playing the game. The simple
adaptations and slight rule variations for people in wheelchairs allowed the sport
to spread across the US, and eventually worldwide.
The sport retains most major rules and
scoring of basketball, and maintains a 10-foot basketball hoop and standard
basketball court. The exceptions are rules which have been modified with consideration
for the wheelchair. For example, "travelling" in wheelchair
basketball occurs when the athlete touches their wheels more than twice after
receiving or dribbling the ball. The individual must pass, bounce or shoot the
ball before touching the wheels again.
The International Wheelchair
Basketball Federation (IWBF) has 82 National Organizations for
Wheelchair Basketball (NOWBs) actively participating in wheelchair basketball
throughout the world, with this number increasing each year. It is estimated
that more than 100,000 people play wheelchair basketball from recreation to
club play and as elite national team members. Wheelchair
basketball is played by boys, girls, men and women.
Wheelchair basketball sees tremendous competition and
interest on the international level. Wheelchair basketball is included in theParalympic Games. The Wheelchair
Basketball World Championship is organized two years after
every Paralympic Games. Major competition in wheelchair basketball comes from Canada, Australia, the United States, Great
Britain, the Netherlands, and Japan.
Wheelchair design
Basketball wheelchairs are designed for enhanced stability. The center of gravity is where the chair and the athlete’s mass are equally distributed in all directions. Points at which the wheelchair can tip over sideways are the fulcrum. A wheelchair with a higher seat is easier to tip. Basketball chairs have lower seats and wheels that are angled outward so that the center of gravity has to move a greater distance before it passes over the fulcrum and tips the chair.
Classifications
Classification is an international regulation for
playing wheelchair basketball to harmonize the different levels of disabilities
players have. All teams which compete above a recreational level use the
classification system to evaluate the functional abilities of players on a
point scale of 1 to 4.5. Minimally disabled athletes are classified as a 4.5,
and an individual with the highest degree of disability (such as a paraplegic
with a complete injury below the chest) would have the classification of 1.0. Competitions
restrict the number of points allowable on the court at one time. The five
players from each team on the court during play may not exceed a total of 14
points. In places where teams are integrated, non disabled athletes compete as
either a 4.5 in Canada or a 5.0 in Europe, however non-disabled athletes are not allowed
to compete internationally.

The Simpsons are a very politically incorrect family. Homer works with pride in a nuclear power plant run with more regard for profit that safety. His wife is Marge, a kind of supermom. They have three kids: Bart, an underachiever ("and proud of it"), Lisa (who is as serious and responsible as Bart isn't), and Maggie

Fall/ Winter 2016 Fashion Trends
Thayana Aparecida da Silva
There were so many fashion trends spotted on the fall 2015 fashion week runways that our heads cannot stop spinning from it all. It was mayhem in a way, with each designer opting to utilize another trend entirely. We were treated to so much that we are sure that almost anything we wear now goes. And then we realize that just is not the case. While we may love the fashion shows we get to watch for about a month and a half, between New York Fashion Week and the one in London, and then comes Milan and finally we are given a taste of the Parisian brands on the catwalk, we also know that it can get frustrating trying to keep up with all the different looks that we can try on. While some are ludicrous for everyday wear, such as the bare chests or their barely covered up alternatives, others are beyond amazing, such as the velvet materials and the slits going right up the thighs. Yet when it comes to finding a single source that lists all the different looks in one place, we are at a loss. Which is where we come in; so we will present to you all the fall/ winter 2016 fashion trends spotted on the Fashion Week runways, between all four cities visited of late.
Fall/ Winter 2016 Fashion Trend #1: 1970s Are Big Again
Fall/ Winter 2016 Fashion Trend #2: Oversized and Masculine Tailoring
Fall/ Winter 2016 Fashion Trend #3: 1940/50s Are Back Again to Man
Fall/ Winter 2016 Fashion Trend #4: Reefer Jackets
Fall/ Winter 2016 Fashion Trend #5: Dark Colors
From those amazing fall 2016 trendy color to the pretty print trends for the season, as well as the styles and shapes of the clothing pieces showcased, we love the new fall/ winter 2016 fashion trends and can’t wait for the colder months to arrive to experiment with our favorite looks!
