Hi Manuela,

Unfortunately my sporting days have passed (53), but I used to play 5-a-side 
soccer quite a lot. Haven't done OT or PT since leaving school. I have the 
typical "sporting injuries" mentioned by others on the list, but then so do 
many of my 50 something non disabled friends.

Would I do it all again? Yes, certainly, the friendships and experience from 
being involved with sport far outweigh the disadvantages. I see the same 
thing in my own (non-disabled) children, 2 of them are sport mad, and have 
abused their bodies in much the same way as I did.

Cheers

Deri
