However, most sports research has been completed on individuals with SCI\/D who are aged <50 years, even though the majority of people with SCI\/D are aged >50 years. Despite substantial evidence supporting sports for older adults not living with a disability, there is currently no research examining the impact of sports for adults with SCI\/D aged \u226550 years.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Objectives<\/jats:title>\n To explore the perceptions and experiences of individuals with SCI\/D aged 50 years or older who participate in sports in the community.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n Fifteen adults with SCI\/D aged \u226550 years who participated in community-based sports were interviewed. Interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. Conventional content analysis was applied to the data.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n The overarching theme identified was that sports are fun and adaptable physical activities that have the potential to optimize physical, psychological, and social health in all people with SCI\/D, regardless of age. Within this overarching theme, six categories surfaced: (1) importance of participating in sports later in life, (2) prioritizing health over performance, (3) uncertainties about participating in sports later in life, (4) reflections on participating in sports later in life, (5) beliefs on alternative sports involvement, and (6) advice for other aging adults with SCI\/D considering sports.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n Sports are perceived to provide physical, psychological, and social benefits for individuals with SCI\/D aged 50 years or older. Findings will inform the development of future adaptive sports programs for older individuals with SCI\/D.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.46292\/sci23-00028","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,4]],"date-time":"2023-12-04T04:38:34Z","timestamp":1701664714000},"page":"37-50","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Exploring the Experiences and Perceptions of Adults With Spinal Cord Injury or Disease Aged 50 Years or Older on Participation in Sports"],"prefix":"10.46292","volume":"29","author":[{"given":"Lovisa","family":"Cheung","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Rehabilitation Sciences Institute, Temerty Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada"},{"name":"KITE-Toronto Rehabilitation Institute, University Health Network, Toronto, Canada"},{"name":"Department of Physical Therapy, Temerty Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jessica","family":"Chiang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physical Therapy, Temerty Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anita","family":"Kaiser","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Rehabilitation Sciences Institute, Temerty Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada"},{"name":"KITE-Toronto Rehabilitation Institute, University Health Network, Toronto, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kara K.","family":"Patterson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Rehabilitation Sciences Institute, Temerty Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada"},{"name":"KITE-Toronto Rehabilitation Institute, University Health Network, Toronto, Canada"},{"name":"Department of Physical Therapy, Temerty Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kristin E.","family":"Musselman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Rehabilitation Sciences Institute, Temerty Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada"},{"name":"KITE-Toronto Rehabilitation Institute, University Health Network, Toronto, Canada"},{"name":"Department of Physical Therapy, Temerty Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"25425","reference":[{"key":"i1945-5763-29-4-37-b1","series-title":"J Spinal Cord Med","first-page":"1","article-title":"Exploring sport participation in individuals with spinal cord injury: A qualitative thematic synthesis","author":"Cheung\n L","year":"2021","unstructured":"Cheung\n L\n , McKayB, ChanK, HeffernanMG, PakoshM, MusselmanKE.
