Sitting Volleyball
Disability Awareness Day is an international day marked by the United Nations on 3 December since 1992. During the week of December 3, various awareness raising activities are held and information shared about the rights of the disabled in Turkey as well. As Tarsus American College, we hosted an awareness raising activity during the week of December 3 to show that sports can be done under all conditions and without limitations. In their lessons, TAC’s Physical Education Department taught the rules of sitting volleyball as a paralympic sport, and held a mini tournament with the students.
