Wheelchair Basketball Chairs
Along with wheelchairs used in other Para sports, such as wheelchair tennis and badminton, modern basketball wheelchairs have two larger cambered wheels at the rear to optimise stability and manoeuvrability, two small castor wheels at the front and one or two small 'anti-tip' castor wheels to the rear.
We offer entry level basketball wheelchairs all the way to professional level athletic chairs, so whether you're a seasoned pro or looking to get started, we can help find the right basketball wheelchair for you.
