The Banner Wheelchair Suns Basketball
Team and the Mesa Association of Sports for the
Disabled have formed a partnership to provide
basketball skills training and development to
wheelchair athletes ages 6 to 21 or graduation
from high school.
The intent of the program is to teach young athletes
the fundamentals of passing, catching, shooting,
dribbling and playing defense.
Potential athletes must be able to catch a basketball
bounced from ten feet and chest pass to a partner
standing eight feet away.
Adaptations can be made to the height of the basket
for our younger athletes.
Practices take place on weekends and weeknights
in Mesa. There is no cost for this program.
