Conwy Thunder Wheelchair Basketball Club only started sessions in November 2011 but has already started raising awareness of an extremely exciting sport in the local area and beyond. Wheelchair Basketball embraces a wide range of disabilities including paraplegics, spina bifida, amputees, brittle bones, cerebral palsy and multiple sclerosis. You do not need to be a wheelchair user to play and non disabled people also take part in sessions and the national league structure all the way to the National 1st Division, making the sport truly inclusive. The club are looking for junior and senior players of all abilities to come down and get involved. You do not need to have experience within wheelchair sport and the club have a range of basketball wheelchairs which new members can use. Conwy Thunder has a dedicated committee, team of coaches and volunteers that can guarantee a warm welcome to anybody interested in wheelchair basketball, whether you are playing for the first time or are a seasoned professional. The club has ambitious aims and strive to provide a fun, social environment for all club members, as well as supporting those players who have the talent and commitment through the performance pathways all the way to the Paralympics. Conwy Thunder have very close links with both the Rhyl Raptors and the Celtic Warriors and have already had their first player sign forms for the Celtic Warriors where he has played League 2 Fixtures.
