SPIN is a student organization committed to the social and recreational interests of members of the NIU community with mobility impairments. Through sports and activities, we hope to build on disability awareness and pride. |
We have also planned out a time for us to go play Power Soccer at the Rockford Park District, which is an adapted form of soccer played in chairs. And we have planned for Joel Berman coming to give a talk. |
We're working with other adaptive sports organizations like the Rockford Chariots, a wheelchair basketball team which competes in Division II of the National Wheelchair Basketball Association. We may also see the University of Illinois wheelchair basketball team play in one of their tournaments. |
