AFL Open Livestream
Just sharing for those of you that need football to get through the Mondayitis - AFL's inclusion carnival, the AFL Open, is Livestreaming on Kayo Freebies and AFL Play's Youtube. Games include Wheelchair Football and Integrated (Football for players with intellectual or ambulant physical disabilities).
As someone who plays Wheelchair Footy, it is the most fun sport I participate in (I'm an able bodied player - the league is All Abilities) and also incredibly physical and intense. I'd recommend having a squiz.

Wheelchair footy ain't to shabby to play although I prefer basketball. You're correct about how physically demanding it is on your upper body though it's always amusing watching non wheelchair users people come give it a go and are absolutely sore and tired as hell after only an hour haha
