Wheelchair Basketball

How to play:

The court dimensions (28x15m) and basket height (10ft) for wheelchair basketball are the same as the able-bodied version, as is the playing time (4x10 minutes) and number of players on court (five). 

The wheelchair sport also follows the same scoring structure:

Free throw – 1 point
Field basket – 2 points
Successful shot from behind the 3-point-line – 3 points

Dribbling: A wheelchair basketball player takes one or two pushes while the ball is either resting on his or her lap or held in his or her hand, followed by dribbling the ball, and this sequence may be repeated as often as the player wishes

Travel violation: Called when player in possession pushes more than twice without dribbling

Fouls: An infraction of the rules concerning illegal personal contact with an opponent - the wheelchair is considered a part of the player

Modification suggestions:

"to make it more accessible for students overall and to make the game easier for beginner players"

• use a smaller, lighter ball

• use a different type of ball (e.g., playground ball)

• use a lower net

• use a net with a larger circumference

• use a smaller playing area

• modify rules according to your student’s abilities wherever you see fit
