Try something new! Drop-in on a series of Wheelchair Basketball skill sessions and games throughout the summer. Learn the foundations of the sport in a welcoming and fun atmosphere. Each day incorporates an hour of drills and skills from a coach, and then an hour of a scrimmage where you can practice what you’ve learned.
