The author traveled with the team and took 45,000 photographs from which he will select 100 images for this book. The images and accompanying captions will show what it's like to be disabled and an athlete, but also to show commonality amongst human beings, to foster understanding more than emphasize difference. One of the players on the championship team is now the coach of the current Illini wheelchair team. He will write an introduction that will cover the inception of the Illinois wheelchair basketball program, his perspective as player and coach, anecdotes from the season, and the lasting impact of the championship. The book will also include "where are they now" profiles of each player on the 2007-2008 team and a current photo"--|cProvided by publisher. 588 Description based on print version record and CIP data provided by publisher; resource not viewed. 610 20 University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign|xBasketball |xHistory|y21st century. 610 20 University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign|xBasketball |xHistory|y21st century|vPictorial works. 610 27 University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00532271 648 7 2000-2099|2fast 650 0 Wheelchair basketball|zIllinois|zUrbana|xHistory|y21st century. 650 0 Wheelchair basketball|zIllinois|zUrbana|xHistory|y21st century|vPictorial works. 650 7 SPORTS & RECREATION / Basketball.|2bisacsh 650 7 PHOTOGRAPHY / Subjects & Themes / Sports.|2bisacsh 650 7 GAMES / Gambling / Sports.|2bisacsh 650 7 SPORTS & RECREATION / Business Aspects.|2bisacsh 650 7 SPORTS & RECREATION / Essays.|2bisacsh 650 7 SPORTS & RECREATION / History.|2bisacsh 650 7 SPORTS & RECREATION / Reference.|2bisacsh 650 7 TRAVEL / Special Interest / Sports.|2bisacsh 650 7 Basketball.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00828203 650 7 Wheelchair basketball.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01174492 651 7 Illinois|zUrbana.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01211927 655 7 History.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 Pictorial works.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423874 776 08 |iPrint version:|aBirnbaum, Josh, 1985- author.|tDream shot|dUrbana : University of Illinois Press, 2017 |z9780252083044|w(DLC) 2017024537 914 on1006529307 994 92|bGTK
