Wheelchair Basketball Sports Directory

Disability Directory : Adaptive Sports : Wheelchair Basketball

Wheelchair basketball is an adaptive sport played by people with disabilities. In some countries such as Canada, Australia and England, able-bodied athletes are allowed to compete alongside other athletes on mixed teams.

It is based on basketball with some adaptations to reflect the presence of the wheelchair. All teams which compete above a recreational level use a classification system to evaluate the functional abilities of players on a point scale.
