Yeah Reid!

After a six-year hiatus from wheelchair basketball, Reid Richard was called back to the sport, but this time he was at the helm of a team.

“My philosophy is that everyone can play sports. It doesn’t matter what your disability is. If you show up to practice, we’re going to find something for you to do, find a way for you to be a part of the team.”

Wheelchair Basketball is an ever growing sport in Saskatchewan. With new players joining ever year, we are in need of trained officials, which are an integral piece for the sport.

On November 18th and 19th in partnership with Wheelchair Basketball Canada and Basketball Saskatchewan Inc. we are hosting a Wheelchair Basketball Officials Clinic in Regina.

This will be an opportunity for stand up basketball officials to learn how to officiate wheelchair basketball games.

If you or someone you know is already a trained official looking to learn more about wheelchair basketball, we invite you to register for this clinic!

Help continue the growth of wheelchair basketball in Saskatchewan!

It's National Coach's week and we'd like to introduce our 2023 coaches.
Eli Corpuz is our mini's coach and has been playing wheelchair basketball for the last 3 years and grew to love the sport. Eli always has a smile on his face and brings a positive attitude and warm environment to every practice.

Thank you to Eli for all of his hardwork. The hours spent hunting down wheelchair parts and recruiting new players and his overall dedication to the club! 🏀
