I chose this video because it was an idea that started in one school at a very basic level and grew into a very large programming where able bodied and disabled individuals can learn and enjoy sport together. When you watch the video you can see the many different types of individuals who are part of the many different activities. One little boy commented and said that it doesn't matter if you are disabled because all that is important is that you have fun!
I thought it was an excellent idea to incorporate role models such as para-olympians into this program. These individuals further explain that sport is for everyone and can be enjoyed by everyone regardless of the barriers they face. They repeat in this video that everyone is the same underneath and regardless of whats presented on the surface, everyone has a right to play and sport/activity can be played by anyone and should be enjoyed by all!
Here is another great video I found (first 5 min) that really discusses the importance of relationships in deciding on what assistive tech works best for an individuals needs.
