Specific purposes | ・Students who are having a difficult time racing in a wheelchair while holding a relay baton will become able to race without dropping the baton. |
Considerations for disability characteristics |
・Students will be able to propel the wheelchair while holding the relay race baton. ・Students can attach the baton holder to an easily accessible point on the wheelchair before a race, making it easy for them to remove the baton from its holder. |
Expected effects and results |
・Students can race freely without fear of dropping the baton and without the awkwardness of racing while holding it. ・Students can be relaxed when racing and fully prepared to pass the relay baton. |
How to use |
・Attach the baton holder to any part of a manual or electric wheelchair where it is easy for the user to remove the baton from the holder and where it does not interfere with the operation of the wheelchair. (Tie the holder onto the wheelchair with the string.) * The baton holder is made from a slim plastic bottle, filing laces, and plastic tape. |
