  • Demographic Profile and Athletic Identity of Traumatic Spinal Cord Injured Wheelchair Basketball Athletes in Greece
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SPECIAL EDUCATION Vol 25 No 1 2010 DEMOGRAPHIC PROFILE AND ATHLETIC IDENTITY OF TRAUMATIC SPINAL CORD INJURED WHEELCHAIR BASKETBALL ATHLETES IN GREECE Angelo Vasiliadis Christina Evaggelinou Sevastia Avourdiadou and Petros Grekinis Aristotle University of Thessaloniki An epidemiological study conducted across the country of Greece was conducted in order to determine the profile and the athletic identity of spinal cord injured (SCI) wheelchair basketball athletes who participated to the 13th Greek Wheelchair Basketball Championship and Cup. The Disability Sport Participation questionnaire was used for data collection, which was conducted by Williams. A total of 29 Greek athletes with SCI were participated between November 2007 and May 2008. Twenty- eight men and one woman wheelchair basketball players participated in the study (mean age of 36 years, range 19 – 56 years). The most common cause of injury was traffic accident (75.9%) then falls (20.7%) and injuries from diving (3.4%). Half of the athletes live alone (51.7%) and sixteen athletes (55.2%) graduated from senior high school. Nearly half of them (n = 14; 48.3%) performed about three training sessions per week. From the results it can be deduced that the spinal cord injured athletes of wheelchair basketball constitute the 31.5% of the total number of athletes. They have a basic level of training hours and days per week, they are not trained in a professional class and as result they did not met the relevant criteria to be in an elite class of athletes. Further research is needed to focus on athletic identity and training patterns of all Paralympics sports in Greece in order to evaluate the growth of its sports separately.

  • Where Are All the W Omen?
    October 2018 WHERE ARE ALL THE WOMEN? Shining a light on the visibility of women’s sport in the media. 579877-EPP-1-2016-2-UK-SPO-SCP Partners Women in Sport exists so that every woman and girl in the UK can experience the transformational and lifelong rewards of sport. The organisation was founded in 1984 and has been the most influential and authentic voice for women and girls in the sector, for over 30 years. This is achieved through extensive research, partnerships with sport deliverers and media campaigns, which bring about changes in policy, practice, attitudes and behaviours, creating greater opportunities for women and girls. Girls in Sport (Sweden) is a rapidly growing foundation, set up in 2015 by two women with a passion for sport and gender equality. Girls in Sport’s mission is to increase the participation and retention of girls and women in sports and outdoor adventure, as well as to bring more women and girls into decision-making and leadership roles at all levels. The organisation focuses on implementing new approaches, developing partnerships and collaborating across society to build a Swedish sports culture that is fully open to, and co-created by girls and women. Universitatea de Vest din Timișoara (UVT) / West University of Timişoara (WUT) is the main higher education institution and research centre in Western Romania, annually implementing over 100 research projects, 25% of which have an international dimension. The University’s strong focus on quality within an increasingly international and globalised academic world is endorsed by UVT’s affiliation to the European Association of Universities (EUA), European Association for International Education, European Association of Erasmus Coordinators, the International Association of Universities (IAU), as well as many other international bodies and associations, and its position in rankings worldwide.
