SPORTABLE WHEELCHAIR BASKETBALL OPEN GYM Fall 2023-Spring 2024

Join the Sportable Adult Wheelchair Basketball team for the Fall 2023 season!

 

This weekly, one-hour series is geared towards older junior players (16+) and developing adult wheelchair basketball athletes with permanent lower limb impairments. Wheelchair basketball promotes teamwork, sportsmanship, and camaraderie. Not all players use wheelchairs for everyday mobility. Players must be able to independently push themselves in a sports wheelchair.

Play in pick up games, learn foundational skills, and take to the court with us! These sessions are perfect for recreational players looking to shoot some hoops for fun, learn the game, and play basketball OR for competitive players looking to get some additional warm-up time in before the competitive practice.

Dates:

  • Fall/Winter 2023: Thursdays, September 7-December 21
  • Winter/Spring 2024: Thursdays, January -April 4

Time: 6:00-7:00 PM

Location: 

  • Fall/Winter 2023: Bon Air United Methodist Church 
  • Winter/Spring 2024: Manchester Middle School

Who: Open to Sportable members, 16 years and older, who have a physical disability that impacts their lower body and can push themselves in a manual wheelchair. Players do NOT have to use a wheelchair for everyday mobility. Examples of Player Conditions: Spina Bifida, Spinal Cord Injuries, Lower Limb Amputees, Cerebral Palsy. Younger participants may join with prior permission from program staff.
