Wheelchair Basketball

Wheelchair basketball is similar to able-bodied basketball, the size of the court, hoops and balls are all the same. The only difference is that a player must dribble the ball every two pushes; otherwise that player will be called for travelling.

In order to play wheelchair basketball a player must have a physical disability in their legs which prevents them from running and jumping. However, at Parafed Waikato non-disabled players are also welcomed to play.

There is a youth team and also a senior team that plays in national and regional champs.

Training is held at The Peak, 60 Kimbrae Dr, Rototuna from 6pm to 8pm.
