London Wheelchair
Basketball Association (LWBA) are seeking players aged 12 to 21 to participate in our
junior wheelchair basketball program.
Wheelchair basketball
players do not need to be confined to a wheelchair to play.
Many players are able to ambulate without the use of a wheelchair or any assistive
device at all. Player disabilities range from
spinal cord injury to joint disease, injury or amputation.
Many youth affected by cerebral palsy, spina bifida, polio or muscular dystrophy
are capable of full participation in the sport of wheelchair basketball. Disabled youths,
even those participating in a regular sport program are not necessarily excluded from
participation in a wheelchair basketball program.
Participants must be able to sit in and manually propel a wheelchair
basketball chair. Good upper body
coordination and the ability to transfer to and ambulate independently in a sport
wheelchair are required.
Your interest and
assistance is greatly appreciated.

would like further information about this program, please
