    2010 World Wheelchair Rugby Championships

    Posted on: Mon, Jan 25 2010 11:59 AM

     As you might have read on the Facebook or Twitter page for the 2010 World Wheelchair Rugby Championships, we are looking for guest bloggers for our blog ( http://www.2010wwrc.com/blogs). We're searching for people who can provide a behind-the-scenes look at events/issues leading up to the 2010 World Wheelchair Rugby Championships and we need your help.

    You don't have to be an athlete or coach who will actually be participating at the World Championships to write for us. We're also looking for volunteers, recreational athletes, retired athletes, support staff and people trying the sport for the first time: anyone with a story to tell. Our goals for the blog are to a) provide a forum for stories not told in conventional media sources b) give athletes an opportunity to promote themselves and connect with a fan base, c) connect the international wheelchair rugby community and d) provide fans of the game with a behind-the-scenes peek into the sport.

    Basically, bloggers will write brief posts on subjects of interest to them. You can write one post or many. These posts can be directly related to the World Wheelchair Rugby Championships (lead-up events, training, etc), be about general issues relating to wheelchair rugby (sports science in wheelchair rugby, classification system, etc) or can just relate an anecdote or story relating to wheelchair rugby (a volunteer writing about why she volunteers, a retired vet discussing changes in the sport over the last 30 years, even anecdotes about training mishaps or funny travel stories). We're also interested in re-posting articles you might have written for a newsletter or even your own blog.

    If you would like more information, please contact arley@2010wwrc.com . You can also get more information on our website (http://www.2010wwrc.com), our Facebook page ('2010 World Wheelchair Rugby Championships') or our Twitter site (@2010wwrc). We hope to hear from you soon!
