NSW Shines in Paralympic Medal Tally
NSW shines in Paralympic medal tally 30 September 2008 Premier Nathan Rees today congratulated New South Wales’ Paralympic athletes who returned from Beijing with an impressive 48 medals. The Premier said we should all be proud of the 37 athletes from NSW who contributed to Australia’s final tally of 79 medals. “Not only are they world class athletes but they are outstanding role models for us all,” Mr Rees said. “NSW athletes returned with 16 gold, 18 silver and 14 bronze medals,” he said. The Paralympic team featured two of New South Wales’ Don’t DIS my ABILITY ambassadors – Athletics gold medallist Kurt Fearnley from Carcoar and Beacon Hill medal- winning cyclist Lindy Hou. “As ambassadors, Kurt Fearnley and Lindy Hou spread the message that people with a disability can lead everyday lives,” Mr Rees said. “They – like their team mates returning from Beijing – are an inspiration to others. “Every person who competed in the Paralympics returns to Australia a winner and an ambassador for people with a disability. “Their hard work, sacrifice and determination have been rewarded as they compete with the best athletes in the world.” Minister for Disability Services Paul Lynch said the Paralympians were an inspiration to the State’s 1.3 million people living with a disability. “People with a disability can do anything – the efforts of our Paralympians are proof of that,” Mr Lynch said. Minister for Sport and Recreation Kevin Greene said the New South Wales Institute of Sport had played a role in supporting the 36 athletes. “The Institute has been part of the Paralympic journey, providing scholarships and programs to give our athletes the support they need to perform to their capacity on the world stage,” Mr Greene said. -

The Shuffle Offense
24_018_022 30-05-2007 13:10 Pagina 18 FIBA EUROPE COACHES - OFFENSE THE SHUFFLE OFFENSE by Lindsay Gaze After an excellent career as a profes- sional player (he played at three edition of the Olympic Games and at two FIBA World Championships in the '60s), Lindsay Gaze has coached the Australian national team in four consecutive edi- tions of the Olympic Games (1972, 1976, 1980 and 1984) and of three FIBA World Championships (1974, 1978 and 1982). In 1985, he became head coach of the Melbourne Tigers, where he stayed until 2005, winning two Australian title and three titles of "Coach of the Year". I had the chance to meet outstanding coaches, who have influenced my philoso- phy of the game and coaching methods. One of the most significant pieces of ad- vice was to select a style of play, learn from others, who have similar points of view and stick with it. When I took over coaching the Mel- bourne Tigers I adopted similar methods, although many refinements have been made as the skills and athleticism of play- ers have developed incredibly since then. The national teams I coached used the same methods as my club teams, but in each case the points of emphasis would vary depending on the talent available. The Melbourne Tigers shuffle offense re- quires every player to be capable of play- ing every position and it is not unusual for the power forwards and centers to be playing the same roles usually reserved for guards. It has been argued that moving the big players away from the basket re- duces their rebounding potential and high percentage scoring opportunities, but equally it can create problems for oppo- nents, who, in many cases, is unfamiliar with defending on the perimeter. -
Lindsay Gaze 1 While I Was Playing at Our National and International Level
Lindsay Gaze 1 While I was playing at our national and international level my club was privileged to host many fine teams from the United States of America and Europe as well as an occasional stop over in Asia to take part in tournaments or exhibition games. During this period I also had the chance to meet outstanding coaches who have influenced my philosophy of the game and coaching methods. One of the most significant pieces of advice was to select a style of play, learn from others who have similar points of view and stick with it. My own coach, Ken Watson, who coached Australia’s first Olympic team in 1956 and again in 1968, introduced a “shuffle” offence after being impressed by Bruce Drake, one of the assistant coaches of the USA 1956 Olympic team. When I took over coaching the Melbourne “Tigers” in 1971 I adopted similar methods, although many refinements have been made as the skills and athleticism of players have developed incredibly since then. The national teams I coached at Olympics and World Championships from 1972 to 1985 used the same methods as my club teams, but in each case the points of emphasis would vary depending on the talent available. During my time as coach of our national team we were always giving away size and height advantage to our main opponents and yet were able to produce leading scorers such as Eddie Palubinskas, Ian Davies and Andrew Gaze. In 1984 the Australian team was dubbed “the undersize over achievers. The Melbourne “Tigers” shuffle offense requires every player to be capable of playing every position and it is not unusual for the taller forwards and centres to be playing the same roles usually reserved for guards. -

Ashford University
SPRING 2017 COMMENCEMENT Commencement SUNDAY, MAY 21, 2017 Viejas Arena, San Diego CA THE HISTORY OF ASHFORD UNIVERSITY FOUNDING The history of Ashford University begins in 1891, when Father John Murray invited the Sisters of St. Francis to help him teach students in Clinton, Iowa. By 1893, the Sisters were able to purchase some land in Clinton, on which they established their mother house and the Mount St. Clare Academy, a prep school for girls. The Academy and mother house quickly outgrew their old building. In 1910, the mother house and the academy moved into the newly constructed Mount St. Clare building. Seeing a need for teachers in Clinton County and the surrounding area, the Sisters founded Mount St. Clare College, the predecessor to Ashford University, in 1918. At that time, the Mount St. Clare Academy, College, and Convent were all housed in the same building. EXPANSION BECOMING A UNIVERSITY In 1950, the North Central In 2002, Mount St. Clare College Association of Colleges and began to offer a Master’s Schools first accredited Mount program over the internet.
