SPRINGBOKS TAKE ON THE SA WHEELCHAIR BASKETBALL SIDE

A buddy of mine directed me to some pretty cool videos of the Springbok rugby team taking on the SA Wheelchair Basketball side. Obviously the Boks got DRILLED! They can be found on the SA Paralympic Team’s website, which also includes info on all our Athletes, Fan mail, Photo Galleries, Schedules, Videos and News.

Check it out!

I don’t know if you’re aware, but we’re three days into the 2008 Paralympics and we already have three gold medals! Nats is obviously cleaning up, and our wheelchair basketball side (among others) are looking good for a gold as well.

It not be surprising, judging by this video I got from the website.

 

 

Pretty cool stuff. I enjoyed how they had Monty jumping around like a mad man! Click here to check out the other videos. They’re all pretty hilarious – some great ones with Bakkies and Victor!

After winning just one medal in the able bodied Olympic Games, I’m thoroughly enjoying supporting our Paralympic team! The finals for the wheelchair basketbal are on Monday and Tuesday, with the Paralympic Games ending on Wednesday the 17th of September.

But there are stacks of other sports taking place before then. Check out the Schedule section of the website to see when each sport is being played and I think we should all get behind our national team.
