by Heidi and Nicole
Take a seat and join our discussion on women in Paralympic sport. Heidi Peters and Nicole Ban, members of Team Canada, will be highlighting sitting volleyball, the athletes, and discussing their experiences on and off the court. Never heard of the Paralympics? Unsure of how to discuss disability? Didn’t know our sport was played sitting on the ground? Don’t worry, we didn’t either and that’s exactly why we are doing this. Take a seat, or don’t, but we’d love it if you listened in on our real-life, everyday conversations. Instagram, TikTok & Youtube: @takeaseatcast

<p>This episode was recorded on September 9th in Paris to capture our immediate reactions to making it on the podium at the Paralympics. Fast forward a month and a half (more actually) and we are finally releasing the episode. Apologies but we had some technical difficulties ... what else is new? But here we are, we can't go back. Listen in to hear our real, raw and unedited reactions to getting BRONZE AT THE PARIS PARALYMPICS. </p> <p>Ps. This episode features the one and only Teresa Wiebe .. a true icon.</p> <p>Teresa's Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/teresarenee_?igsh=MXFiNnV3N3pmamJjbA==" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@teresarenee_</a></p> <p>Take a Seat Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/takeaseatcast?igsh=MTVlbnpubGxlazluYw%3D%3D&utm_source=qr" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@takeaseatcast</a></p> <p>Heidi’s Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/heidipeters__?igsh=MThpMWlnZ2RjdHBkYw%3D%3D&utm_source=qr" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@heidipeters__</a></p> <p>Nicole’s Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/nicoleban_?igsh=bTljYWRxMng5MG56&utm_source=qr" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@nicoleban_</a></p>

<p>Today’s mini episode is a broadcasting update for sitting volleyball at the Paralympics! </p> <p><br></p> <p>As discussed in episode 11, the first 3 days of the sitting volleyball competition were not included in the broadcast plan decided on by Paris 2024. CBC Sports went to bat for sitting volleyball, and Team Canada at large, to acquire the rights from OBS (Olympic Broadcasting Services) in order to stream our first 2 matches. We don't know the specific in's and out's, but we know we are VERY grateful for the support and behind the scenes magic. Listen in as we say thank you and discuss our hopes for Paralympic broadcasting in the future!</p> <p><br></p> <p>Link to CBC Sports' streaming schedule: today:https://www.cbc.ca/sports/streaming-schedule?sport=Sitting+Volleyball </p> <p><br></p> <p>As far as we know, all other sitting volleyball countries will not have their games streamed the first 3 days. We can't wait for the day that we aren't even having this conversation. If you'd like to continue supporting, you can e-mail OBS and tell them how much you'd like to see ALL sitting volleyball (and ALL Paralympic sports) covered for their ENTIRE competitions!</p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p>
