[Blind-rollers] has it been adapted for wheel chair users?

[Kenlawrence124 at aol.com]

Hi list members, ken here.  an idea popped in to my head about doing a  meet 
the blind event at a local school for handicapped children and a center for  
adults with handicapped.  just thought of a Goalball demo as part of  it.  but 
don't know if in fact we may or may not do anything there.   does anyone on 
list know if Goalball or maybe five a side football has been  adapted for 
wheelchair users?  Know about wheelchair Basketball but not the  others.  Remember 
wheelchair soccer being played at an Olympics event for  United cerebral palsy 
in 1976.  It had to be indoors because it rained and  the afternoon events and 
evening events moved to the Fieldhouse at Springfield  college.  They played 
eight a side three forwards, three defenders, And two  midfielders.  Anyone 
have thought on this?  Ken.
 
I pledge to  participate actively in the efforts of the national federation 
of the blind to  achieve equality, opportunity, and security for the blind; to 
support the  policies and programs of the federation; and abide by it's  
constitution.
