The man we all know (and love) who was the catalyst in this proactive movement in wheelchair sports was Timothy J. Nugent (affectionately known as Sarge-uh, Coach, by his team). The program evolved to include a wide variety of sports ranging from: archery, basketball, bowling, cheerleading and football to swimming, table tennis, and square dancing with the intent to allow students with disabilities to not only achieve academically, but also to participate in related extracurricular activities offered to their able-bodied classmates. The Gizz Kids went on to compete in the first National Wheelchair Basketball Tournament (NWBT) which was hosted by the U of I at Galesburg. From 1948 to 1970 the Gizz Kids finished in the top four of the NWBT 13 times and won the National Championship on three occasionstheir first in 1953. Throughout the years, the University of Illinois was at the forefront of wheelchair technology development to enhance participation in sport. The "Illinois Wheel", a pneumatic tire which improved speed, traction, and maneuverability was developed. In 1967, a new, lightweight sports chair made from stainless steel was developed with Stainless Medical Products, Inc. which led to two back-to-back NWBA National championship titles for the Gizz Kids. These two developments served as a catalyst for ongoing improvements and modifications which are still a focus of today's wheelchair manufacturers.

Extractions: It all started in 1978, when Welshman Leighton Rees beat Englishman John Lowe 11-7 in the first ever Embassy World Darts Championship final. The winner picked up a cheque for £3,000, a sum which would be considered small in modern times. The two would clash again at the same stage a year later and this time Lowe got revenge with a crushing 5-0 victory. EMBASSY CHAMPIONS 1978 - Leighton Rees

http://www.legion.ca/asp/docs/sports/T&Fhist_e.asp

Extractions: The Legion's involvement in track and field goes back to the 1950's when Ontario Legion Hydro Branch 277 first sponsored the former Canadian Olympic Training Plan. This program went Dominion wide after the 1956 Legion Dominion Convention in Vancouver. By 1957 the Legion was conducting national athletes' clinics with each province being invited to send athletes and coaches. By 1961 more than 700 athletes had attended these sessions. In 1962 the Canadian Government awarded a grant to sustain the program and this funding continued until 1969. When this support was withdrawn, the track and field program went back to being a provincial level program. In 1975, however, the Legion decided to run a pilot national track and field meet in Waterloo, Ontario. It's extreme success led to the continuation of the program for a 1976 meet in Edmonton, Alberta, since when it has become an annual event and a major program within the Legion. Funding is provided from the Legion's own resources. The nationally sanctioned event which has developed over the years is now divided into two sections - a two-day meet and a two-day clinic for the athletes. These events are attended by more than 330 athletes, 30 coaches and an equal number of chaperons.
