Daniel Moody joined the Triad Trackers wheelchair basketball team in January 2006. The Trackers practice and play home games at Miller Park Community Recreation Center, Winston-Salem, NC.
I think my reaction as a spectator was similar to most other people. Initially absolute awe at how the players compete with such intensity. Then a period of settling in as the rules, techniques and tactics of the game unfold. Then awe again when a player displays skills in dribbling or shooting almost unimaginable from someone confined to a wheelchair. And of course the heart-stopping moments when a player rolls over and the comraderie as other players, team mates and opponents alike, swoop in to help straighten things out. I find the home court very dificult to take photographs, with uneven and fairly dim lighting. But I hope I have captured some of the spirit of the game. See more pictures in the gallery.
