ARTICLE “I Feel We are Inclusive Enough”: Examining Swimming Coaches’ Understandings of Inclusion and Disability Andrew Hammond Ruth Jeanes University of British Columbia Monash University, Melbourne Dawn Penney Deana Leahy Edith Cowan University and Monash University, Melbourne Monash University, Melbourne In this study, semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight Victorian swimming coaches to examine the discourses of disability1 and inclusion that they expressed in relation to their current coaching practices. Analysis specifically pursued links between neoliberalism, ableism, elitism, classification and inclusion in coaching, with the intention of exploring what discourse relations are possible, imaginable and practical within what have been referred to as neoliberal-ableist times. Findings reveal that coaches replicate and reproduce elitist, ableist assumptions about the body and sport. The discussion prompts a consideration of how rationalities and techniques of inclusion are limited under the prevailing political context. This paper explores the effects of “neoliberal-able rationality” are central to this research and then expand upon our theorization sport policy and swimming coaches’ understandings of inclusion and application of the concept of neoliberal-ableism to critically and disability. Recent research has highlighted how economic examine sport and inclusion. policies underpinned by neoliberal rationalities of government often see sport as a tool that can be used to alleviate social problems Neoliberalism that are conceived to be a social and economic burden on the state (e.g., juvenile delinquency, obesity, homelessness, unemployment We define neoliberal rationality as a governing rationality through and so on) (Gard, Dionigi, & Dionigi, 2018; Hall, 2006; Parnell, which everything becomes “economized.” As Wendy Brown has May, Widdop, Cope, & Bailey, 2018).

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract This article explains the results of a study conducted on the characterizations of subgrade soils in the region of Thies. The road platforms are mainly composed of a background soil, which is gener- ally overlapped by a surface layer that plays two roles. Firstly, it protects the soil structure, en- sures the leveling, and facilitates the movement of vehicles. Secondly, it brings harmony in the mechanistic characteristics of the materials that compose the soil while improving the long-term life force. The methodology consisted in taking samples of subgrade soil along the roads all over the region of Thies in a 5 km diameter span. The identification tests allowed the Thies-Tivaoune, Thies-Khombole and Thies-Noto axes are characterized by tight sands, poorly graded size. While Thies Pout-axis is characteristic of severe solid particle size and spread well graded and serious to spread and well graded particle size.

This is factored in when classifying an athlete. The following examples are only a guide - some conditions not mentioned here may also fit the following classes THE FUNCTIONAL CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (FCS) PHYSICAL IMPAIRMENTS S1, SB1, SM1 Swimmers in this class would usually be wheelchair users and may have a higher dependency for their every day needs. Examples: Swimmers with very severe coordination problems in all four limbs or have no use of their legs, trunk, hands and minimal use of their shoulders only.
