Stratford, Olympic Park


Had an amazing day at the Olympic Park

The best thing I saw was 'Murderball'; now known as wheelchair rugby.
It is a fast and furious game where each team has to try and grab the ball and wheel it across the line of the opposition.The Team members try to defend by blocking, ramming into each other and even knocking the opposing team over! This usually leads to a one minute time out in the' sinbin'. I was in awe of the athletes involved as it looked so violent. Also, they could manoeuvre so quickly around the arena using a chair that spun on a 360 degree angle sometimes weaving through the defenders and powering the ball over the line. WOW!!!!
