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.
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.
Our camp curriculum is designed to meet the needs of athletes at all levels, from beginning athletes to more experienced athletes working to make USA national teams.
