  • Wheelchair Curling
    WHEELCHAIR CURLING Skill: I will push the rock as close to the center of the house Safety First as possible. Control the Delivery Stick Cognitive: I will discuss the skill components of curling. Push and Follow Through to Fitness: I will be actively engaged during the entire activity. Target Personal & Social Responsibility: I will follow all rules and etiquette of curling. Equipment: 8 rocks (bean bags) per rink 1–2 scooters per rink 8 low-profile cones per rink (4 per color to designate teams) 1 delivery stick (hockey stick, lacrosse stick, noodle) per rink 1 chair or wheelchair per rink Floor tape Set-Up: 1. Create rinks and house targets with tape/cones. 2. Use floor tape to make targets (houses) at 1 end of each rink. 3. Place a chair, delivery stick, and 8 bean bags at the opposite end of the house for each rink. 4. Create equal teams, 2 teams at each rink. Activity Procedures: 1. It’s time for Wheelchair Curling, a Paralympic event that matches Olympic Curling. The only adaptation from Olympic curling is the elimination of sweepers. 2. The objective of today’s activity is to place your team’s rock closest to the button during each end. 3. 1 student from the 1st team will sit in the chair (or wheelchair) and use the delivery stick to push the rock (scooter carrying a bean bag) toward the house. Try to get your rock closest to the button. Take turns sending scooters. When each scooter stops, the team will place a low-profile cone on the floor as a marker of the send.

  • Wheelchair Delivery Strategy Sweeping Basic
    learn to curl Spirit Delivery Sweeping Strategy wheelchair Stick BaSic ruleS Dare to curl Curling in the United States has experienced great growth in the past decade, thanks in great part to TV coverage during the Olympic Winter Games. Membership in the U.S. Curling Association has increased from just over 10,000 in 2002 to nearly 16,000 in 2012. USA Curling currently boasts 165 member clubs in 40 states. Many of these new curling clubs are termed “arena” clubs, meaning that the clubs are housed at facilities were multiple sports are offered as opposed to a dedicated curling rink. Having existing curling arena owners embrace curling has been another significant factor in the growth of curling in the U.S. as it brought the sport to many warmer climates in southern states where curling never was played before, including South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Texas, and Arizona, just to name a few. Some Fun Facts about Curling: • It is generally agreed that curling was developed in Scotland in the 16th century on frozen marshes • Curling was first an Olympic medal sport in 1924, but did not obtain full medal status again until 1998 • Curling is played in 48 countries worldwide. Canada leads the way with around 1 million active curlers • The modern curling stone is round, made of granite, and weighs about 42 pounds • The first known U.S. curling clubs were located in New York City, Detroit, Milwaukee, and Portage, Wis. • Sweeping can help a stone slide up to an additional 15 feet • On average, an athlete can walk up to 2 miles in an 8-end game Brochure production is made possible through grants from the World Curling Federation and The Chicago Community Trust.

  • Biomechanical Modeling of Paralympic Wheelchair
    Biomechanical Modeling of Paralympic Wheelchair Curling by Brock Laschowski A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Applied Science in Mechanical Engineering Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2016 © Brock Laschowski 2016 Author's Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This research represents the first documented investigation into the biomechanics and neural motor control of Paralympic wheelchair curling. A multibody biomechanical model of the wheelchair curling delivery was developed in reference to a Team Canada Paralympic athlete with a spinal cord injury. Subject-specific body segment parameters were quantified via dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. The angular joint kinematics throughout the wheelchair curling delivery were experimentally measured using an inertial measurement unit system; the translational kinematics of the curling stone were additionally evaluated with optical motion capture. The experimental kinematics were optimized to satisfy the kinematic constraints of the multibody biomechanical model. The optimized kinematics were subsequently used to compute the resultant joint moments through inverse dynamics analysis. The neural motor control of the Paralympic athlete was modeled using forward dynamic optimization. The predicted kinematics from different optimization objective functions were compared with those experimentally measured throughout the wheelchair curling delivery. Of the optimization objective functions under consideration, minimizing angular joint accelerations resulted in the most accurate predictions of the kinematic trajectories and the shortest optimization computation time.

  • Community-Based Adaptive Sports Program Directory
    Department of Veterans Affairs Office of National Veterans Sports Programs and Special Events 2013 Community-Based Adaptive Sports Programs Directory Department of Veterans Affairs 810 Vermont Ave., NW Suite 915B Washington, DC 20420 The Veterans Affairs Office of National Veterans Sports Programs and Special Events is pleased to partner with U.S. Paralympics for the third year in a row in support of disabled Veterans and disabled members of the Armed Forces. Through our partnership to-date, we have provided more than $4M in grant funding to 223 organizations that are providing sport pro- grams and opportunities for Veterans with physical and visual disabilities. Thousands of Veterans across the nation are participating in Paralympic and adaptive sport programs – some recreationally, others with a dream to compete in a future Paralympic Games. At the London 2012 Paralympic Games, 20 Veterans and service members helped make up the U.S. team; they accounted for a total of 12 U.S. medals. With the 2014 Paralympic Winter Games around the corner, we hope to continue to see additional Veterans compete in Sochi, Russia. Regardless of skill level, the goal for VA and U.S. Paralympics is to provide opportunities for disabled Veterans and disabled members of the Armed Forces to plug into sport programming to achieve better overall health and fitness. If you haven’t checked out the opportunities available to you, I urge you to give it a try. To find out about programs near you, visit http://va.gov/adaptivesports/va_clubFinder.asp . Thank you for
