We would like to extend an invite to join us at the 2012 Disability Sport Expo on the SJSU campus on Monday November 5,2012.
Our main goal for the Disability Sport Expo 2012 (DSE) is to provide information about disability sport, as well as demonstrating dis-sports. After demonstrating the sports, we will allow the audience to get involved. This may include letting them get into wheel chairs and playing quad-rugby. The sports will be taught and demonstrated by the students in Kin 159, including guests to help teach Power Wheelchair Soccer.
Sports on demonstration at the DSE 2012 will include: Sitting Volleyball, Power Wheelchair Soccer, Goal Ball, Wheelchair Rugby, and more.
We will also have raffles with prizes and silent auctions to raise money for future club events and expos. Guest speakers will be in attendance to give information about these sports and how attendees can become more involved.
We hope to have a large turnout for DSE 2012. We would like to promote our event to as many people as possible to teach them something they may not have been aware of before. We hope that we can come together as a campus and spread the word, as well as have a large gathering to show able and disabled bodies that there are sports for everyone.
For more information, please contact Dr. Nanancy Meggison (nancy.megginson@sjsu.edu), or student aides Daniel Gutierezz (daniel_gutierrez9@yahoo.com) or Liz Parada (lizparada@yahoo.com).
Join us in celebrating and researching disability sport.
