Integration of sport for athletes with disabilities into sport
programmes for able-bodied athletes.
As sport for athletes with disabilities has grown and become a part of public consciousness during
the years, talk about integration and activities to integrate has become increasingly intense. The
author's experience has been that if a group of persons connected with sport for Persons with
disabilities, athletes, and leaders alike are asked what they mean by integration, there will be almost
as many different answers as there are persons in the room. Thus, depending with whom they talk,
leaders within the sport system into which integration is desired, receive contradictory information
as to what organizations on sport for the disabled really want and expect in this area.
