I'm disabled and I played Varsity Soccer and 4 years on the Varsity Golf Team that went to state 3 years in a row. I had to adapt to the game and figure stuff out but once I did I could play golf better than most and be competitive. I was not put on the team because I was disabled(neck, shoulders and back all fused) I made the team because I could play as well as the able body players and not slow team play down. My condition has deteriorated quite a bit since then, that was almost 20 years ago when teams had to win or you ran laps. In soccer I ran just as many laps as anyone else on the team and played in the mud, rain, sleet.
