Getting into the Game: Sports Programs for Kids with Autism
Spectrum Disorder will help families, clinicians and coaches
support children with autism in taking their first steps into sport
and recreation. Participation in individual and team sports plays
an important part in children's development and promotes growth in
a number of areas. As well as the obvious health benefits, sport
also provides the perfect backdrop to teach young people with
autism about rules, strategy and teamwork - all invaluable lessons
that can be applied to wider society. By detailing six of the most
popular sports: cycling, ice skating, swimming, soccer, taekwondo
and tennis and including the unique experiences of families of
children with autism, it offers all the information, advice and
support needed to help get kids with autism engaged in fun and
positive sport environments. This book is an invaluable resource
for parents, teachers, coaches and anyone supporting children with
autism spectrum disorders in a sport or recreation environment.
