Today, NTNUI is recognized as\nNorway&#8217;s largest sports team with over 12,000 unique members, all of whom have\nsomething in common; namely the love of their sport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-small-font-size\">NTNUI has a\ngreat desire to be able to offer sports for all students who want to do sports.\nTrondheim holds a huge range of students, each one different from each other &#8211;\nboth in terms of sports in the heart, but also when it comes to personal\nrequirements for performing the sport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\">What is\nParaidrett (parasports)?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-small-font-size\">Parasports\n(Paraidrett in norwegian) are sports for people with a disability. There are\n&#8220;par&#8221; lell to sports for athletic athletes, with custom equipment or\nrules to make the sport fun and accessible to everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-small-font-size\">Nor is it\ntrue that para-sports are only for those with disabilities &#8211; on the contrary!\nAlso functional ones can be included and there are several options to get this\nto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-small-font-size\">Some parasports\nalso do not have a corresponding sport for functional people. An example of\nthis is Goalball, which was arranged during the Student Games in Trondheim 2017\nand in February this year, 2019. The fact that almost no students have played\nit before and that sighting and blind posing quite similar gives a unique\nopportunity for equality and cohesion. This was a huge success and we hope to\nspread goalball to other student sports teams in the country! Maybe YOUR sports\nteam would want to try it out?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\">What is\nNTNUI Paraidrett?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-small-font-size\">NTNUI Paraidrett mainly deals with three different areas:<strong>1<\/strong><br> <br><strong>1. Information and competence development within NTNUI<\/strong> <br>NTNUI Paraidrett will be a source of information and knowledge about how to solve various challenges. How to organize a sport for people with disabilities, what offers do we actually have in Trondheim, where do you apply for funding to get support for para-directional services, who should I talk to if I need help or who should we contact if we want to contribute?<strong>2<\/strong><br><br><strong>2. Lending of Paraid equipment<\/strong> <br>In collaboration with NTNUI Bumerang, NTNUI Paraidrett lends out brand new para-ski equipment for free. The equipment consists of a tandem bike with a motor, a hand bike, two spikes (one sitting and one knee) and two athletic wheelchairs. These are booked through NTNUI Bumerang&#8217;s lending portal <strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"here  (\u00e5pner i en ny fane)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ntnuibumerang.no\/equipment.html\" target=\"_blank\">here <\/a><\/strong>and can be picked up between 17-18 in weekdays.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-small-font-size\">The equipment can be borrowed by anyone regardless of whether you are a student, NTNUI member, private person, company or organization. Contact us and we will find a solution!<br> <br><strong>3. Volunteer Bank to maintain the ofers in Trondheim<\/strong> <br>Take a look <a href=\"https:\/\/ntnui.no\/paraidrett\/become-a-volunteer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"HERE (\u00e5pner i en ny fane)\">HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\">How can YOU\ncontribute?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-small-font-size\">Non-disabled\ncan also engage in parasports in several ways; as a participant, as a trainer\nor as a \u200b\u200bvolunteer. There are also several options where functional athletes\ncan show support for participants with disabilities, such as guides, pilots and\ndrivers. You also don&#8217;t just have to choose one role: many people end up being\ninvolved in several different ways depending on what they think is fun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-small-font-size\">NTNUI\nParaidrett this spring kicked off a &#8220;volunteer portal&#8221; where you can\nsign up as a companion in various sports. This is a simple low threshold way to\ncontribute.
