Your Weekly Update May 26, 2021
Your Weekly Update May 26, 2021 In observance of Memorial Day, Lakeshore will operate under abbreviated hours, 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Monday, May 31. Member News Thank you for your patience and cooperation over the past year. We could not have successfully re-opened without your support. In response to new guidelines, the end of Alabama’s COVID-19 health order, and the fact that 76% of Lakeshore’s staff have been fully vaccinated, we are updating our requirements and operations on June 1. Important changes beginning Tuesday, June 1: Facemasks for members/guests are optional. We strongly urge you to wear a mask, per CDC guidance, if you have not been vaccinated. If you need information on vaccine eligibility or vaccination sites, visit the Alabama Department of Public Health’s website. Staff will continue to wear facemasks at work (not required when actively working out). We will begin personal training in the pool again. We encourage social distancing and acknowledge that includes keeping some fitness equipment closed or distanced in the facility, as well as some capacity limits. Please note that there may be separate guidelines/requirements for some activities. Why June 1 and not now? We know some members have planned their time at Lakeshore and may wish to make changes as a result of our updates. Because we are committed to transparency and supporting every member, we believe giving four days’ notice (open days) is the right thing to do. We recognize and respect that there are many different perspectives, preferences and personal approaches to the pandemic.

Wheelchair Rugby Sevens
Wheelchair Rugby Sevens Wheelchair Rugby Sevens is an all-inclusive version of wheelchair rugby with both males and females playing in the same team. Whereas Paralympic wheelchair rugby uses a classification system, the sevens version does not and able bodied players are allowed to compete. The games are similar to Rugby Union in that they run for 80 minutes, with an oval ball which must be passed backwards. The scoring system is the same - you can score tries, conversions, penalties and drop goals. There’s no doubting the physicality of the game with contact between wheelchairs being allowed, there’s even line outs and scrums! A member of the Scottish team makes a break! FireFit Hub is a youth centre based in Toxteth, Liverpool that are a part of the StreetGames Network. For the past year, they’ve been running weekly rugby sessions as part of a Pop-Up Club programme set up by the RFU and StreetGames. This programme entails running informal, fun and inclusive rugby sessions in disadvantaged areas of the UK to increase interest and participation levels following the World Rugby U20 Championships held in England in 2016. They have also been running Wheelchair Rugby Union Sevens sessions for the young people around the centre since January 2017. It was initially set up after running a survey of their young people asking which sports they’d like to try. Wheelchair Rugby was a popular choice and through Satellite clubs they were able to run these sessions. They then partnered with the England Wheelchair Rugby Union Sevens team who helped them run their sessions.

Le Wheelchair Sevens, Le Rugby Pour Tous
Le Wheelchair Sevens, le Rugby pour Tous Le Wheelchair Sevens Rugby Union (Rugby à 7 en fauteuil) est la seule pratique de l’Ovalie en Fauteuil à être accessible au plus grand nombre et exclue toutes cotations et classifications. Comme son homologue, le Rugby à 7 (discipline Olympique au Jeux du Brésil en 2016), le Rugby à 7 en Fauteuil présente aussi une mêlée à trois contre trois. Elle est composée de façon linéaire avec un Talonneur, un Deuxième ligne, et un Troisième ligne. La spécificité des « Touches » est aussi présente au sein de la pratique du Rugby à 7 en Fauteuil. Elles peuvent se présenter sous forme d’un alignement de Trois joueurs contre Trois, alignement qui peut être réduit aux choix jusqu’à un contre un. Drop, Chandelle, transformation, pénalité, etc… sont aussi présent au sein du Rugby à 7 en Fauteuil. La frappe du ballon s’effectuant avec le poing, ne déroge pas à la règle du jeu au pied du Rugby, exigeant une frappe dans le ballon laissé chu perpendiculairement. Nommé aux AWARDS 2014 du Rugby Expo de Londres, catégorie Programme Communautaire de l’année. Le Rugby à 7 en Fauteuil ne déroge pas à la catégorie des sports de contacts : lors des un contre un, les chocs sont impressionnants, mais souvent, ne suffisent pas pour arrêter la progression du porteur de la balle. Lorsqu’un deux défenseurs percuteront simultanément le porteur du ballon, un MAUL sera alors automatiquement constitué, obligeant l’attaquant à libérer son ballon dans les 5 secondes. La marque au Rugby à 7 en Fauteuil est identique qu’au Rugby.

Rules for Wheelchair Rugby – Rishi Sharma
Here are some rules and regulations of Wheelchair Rugby (there are many more but here are the important ones): 1. Everyone is given a classification based on their physical function of either 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, or 3.5. This point value is determined by highly skilled physical therapists, known as classifiers, that perform a variety of manual muscle tests and observations of watching an athlete play to determine an appropriate point value. The higher the point value (3.5 being the highest and 0.5 being the lowest) the more function that player has. I am a 2.0 and I have seen other players with CMT be as high as 3.5 or as low as a 1.0. This is because CMT affects everyone differently. Players who are 45 or older or are female get an automatic 0.5 deduction. 2. Only 4 players on each team are allowed on the court at one time and the combined point value of those players on court for each team can not exceed 8 points. For instance, if all the players on court, for one of the two teams, have all their players have the same point value of 3.0 (3-point value x 4 players = 12 points on court which exceeds the 8 points allowed) this is considered an illegal lineup and will result in the team forfeiting the game. This rule is there to make sure all players get a chance to play. 3. Left: Offensive Chair | Right: Defensive Chair There are two types of chairs used to play this game.

Fair Play the Story of Rugby at the Olympics the Rugby and Olympic Values
Fair Play The Story of Rugby at the Olympics The Rugby and Olympic values Which Rugby and Olympic values are the same or similar? Is Rugby a good fit with the Olympics? Did you know Rugby has been at five Olympics? Rugby at the 1900 Olympics in Paris Three teams competed in the Rugby tournament. A French representative team defeated a team from the German city of Frankfurt and Moseley Wanderers from England. The Moseley team had played a full game of Rugby in England the day before they made the journey to Paris. They arrived in the morning, played the match in the afternoon and were back in their home country by the next morning. The proposed game between the British and German sides was cancelled and both are credited as silver medalists. The Franco-Haitian centre Constantin Henriquez de Zubiera became the first black gold medalist. Three months earlier he had competed in the tug of war. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1900_Summer_Olympics Rugby at the 1908 Olympics in London The host Great Britain was represented by Cornwall, the 1908 county champion. Defending Olympic champions France withdrew, leaving Australasia, represented by the Australia national Rugby union team as the only other remaining entrant. The interest in the Olympic Rugby final was only lukewarm with the final being held in the last week of Games that had taken place over six months. In 1908 Twickenham Stadium was still being built. The match was played at the White City Stadium, London, on an area alongside the Olympic Games swimming pool which measured 110 yards in length with a long line of netting stretched beside to catch flying balls.
