Sports activities and training sessions organised by the council of the Physically Handicapped Rehabilitation Fund (PHRF) will resume on Saturday, October 14 at the PHRF's centre in Corradino.

These activities will be run by the PHRF's sports section, led by Joseph M. Cardona.

Mike Pace, a qualified coach, is responsible for the training of the participants.

The council, this year celebrating its 60th anniversary, puts great emphasis on sports activities as the most effective means for the rehabilitation of disabled persons.

This goal is being achieved thanks mainly to the dedication of Pace who has been offering technical guidance to PHRF members on a voluntary basis for the past 44 years.

Interested persons can practise the following sport at the PHRF: javelin, shot, discus, club, rings, cricket ball, slalom, wheelchair race, bowling, table tennis, weightlifting and basketball.

Training sessions start at 2 p.m. every Saturday up to May 7, 2007 when an annual sports day will be organised.

More information may be obtained by calling the PHRC on 2169-3863.
