SASAII Website

It has been a while, in fact almost a full 3 years since my last post.  Well a lot has since happened, personally and professionally.  More importantly, SASAII has launched its website on the 15 July 2013. We are particularly excited about it, and i hope you will too.  So in short, if you want to be kept abreast of all things sport for athletes with an intellectual disability, then you have to check out our webpage.
