Power wheelchair soccer is the fastest growing sport in the world for athletes with disabilities using power wheelchairs.
Power Soccer Season – September – June. Contact us or check our events for our scheduled practices.
It’s a team sport that helps build character through teamwork, communication, hard work, perseverance, good sportsmanship.
Power Soccer combines the skill of the wheelchair user with the speed and power of the chair itself, to participate in an extremely challenging game similar to soccer. The game is played in a gymnasium on a regulation basketball court. Two teams of four power wheelchair users attack, defend, and spin-kick a 13-inch soccer ball in an attempt to score goals.
Our project provides local youth and adults in power wheelchairs opportunities to participate in a sport that is not normally available to them. Being on the court, playing soccer helps the athletes realize that being in a wheelchair is not an excuse for not achieving their goals. Our program promotes interaction with other people in a positive community setting, promoting teamwork, while allowing them the ability to participate in sports competitively or recreationally.
