Sponsorship, Support and Collaborations

Through the years, UTA has provided athletes with disabilities the opportunity to represent the University at the highest levels of athletic competition through the wheelchair basketball. Support can come in many ways; scholarships, travel and operating costs continue to rise above and beyond the reach of current budgets.

Junior and College Testing Guidelines

This spreadsheet was created to give coaches and players in the wheelchair basketball community a numerical set of data to use in determining what qualifies as "average" times during drills.
