7/13/17 - 20th World Maccabiah Games Daily Update

7/13/17: 20th World Maccabiah Games Update
Reflection from Seth Rojhani, Paralympic Basketball Team Member
It's been good to be in a country that has been able to provide access for us pretty much everywhere.

This is very different than America because not everything is accessible whereas here everything is, especially the bathrooms have handicapped stalls, that has been incredible. There are curb cuts and ramps in every building. 

During our Lev l'Lev trip, we had the opportunity to visit the Israel Sports Center for the Disabled. What an incredible place. Seeing the huge complex, that caters to athletes in rugby, basketball, tennis, table tennis, swimming, etc, the center stood out to me as being extremely inclusive, how it involves all types of disabled athletes.
