Wheelchair basketball can be played by anyone, even those without a disability.

Wheelchair basketball can be played by able bodied, right up to those with knee or leg injuries and of course people who use wheelchairs in their everyday life.

๐Ÿป๐Ÿ€ WHAT DOES BEARS BRING TO YOU? ๐Ÿ€๐Ÿป

Sometimes the best people to tell you what being part of Warwickshire Bears is really like are the young players themselves. โค๏ธ

For them, wheelchair basketball is about so much more than what happens on court. Itโ€™s about confidence, friendships, having fun, learning new skills and feeling part of a team.

At Bears, weโ€™re proud to create a place where young people can come along, be themselves, develop at their own pace and discover just how much theyโ€™re capable of.

And right now, weโ€™re looking for NEW PLAYERS! ๐Ÿ™Œ

๐Ÿ€ New to wheelchair basketball? Thatโ€™s absolutely fine.
๐Ÿป Never played before? Weโ€™ll help you get started.
๐Ÿ’ช Want to build confidence and learn new skills? Come and give it a go.
โค๏ธ Most importantly โ€” come and become part of our Bears family.

Have a listen to what some of our young Bears and Cubs have to say about what the club brings to them. ๐ŸŽฅ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿป๐Ÿ€ IAG League & U14s Round-Up! ๐Ÿ€๐Ÿป

What a fantastic day of wheelchair basketball on Sunday for both our Bears and Cubs teams! ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ”ฅ

IAG League Results
๐Ÿ“Š Bears 16 - 30 Coventry
๐Ÿ“Š Bears 31 - 38 Stoke

U14s Results
๐Ÿ“Š Cubs 16 - 9 Coventry Comets
๐Ÿ“Š Cubs 10 - 12 Aces
๐Ÿ“Š Cubs 10 - 14 Coventry Comets

While the results didnโ€™t all go our way, the scoreboards only tell part of the story. Every player showed incredible determination, teamwork, and passion throughout the day, and the progress being made across the club is amazing to see.

A special congratulations to Isla, who played in her first tournament, and Ted, who also made his competitive debut, showing great ball handling, passing and teamwork throughout the day. ๐Ÿ€๐Ÿ‘

A huge well done to Bobby for scoring his first basket, Jack for his outstanding defence, Ruby-Rose for being a fantastic role model and mentor to our newer players, Corey for stepping up with confidence on both offence and defence, Alice for some excellent shooting and dribbling, and Chloe who had a brilliant day scoring from all around the key.

Moments like these show exactly what the Bears Family is all aboutโ€”supporting each other, developing confidence, building friendships, and celebrating every achievement, big or small. ๐Ÿปโค๏ธ

A massive thank you to Ali and Tom for all their hard work behind the scenes organising, coaching and making these opportunities possible for our players.

Finally, thank you to all the parents, carers, grandparents, siblings, aunts, uncles and supporters who cheered on our players throughout the day. Your support means everything.
