WWSH BASKETBALL PROGRAM
Free competitive basketball for ages 7-17 where ALL youth compete together. Full adaptive integration - all abilities practice side-by-side on the same courts.
ABOUT WWSH BASKETBALL
What Makes Us Different
The WWSH Basketball Program is Brooklyn's premier adaptive sports integration model. Unlike traditional programs that segregate participants by ability, all 75 youth practice and compete together - wheelchair users shooting at the same hoops, playing the same competitive games.
Led by nationally-recognized adaptive sports expert Alexander Elegudin (Co-Founder, Wheeling Forward Inc., 2023 Henry Viscardi Award Winner) and Head Coach Lamont Kirton (16+ years youth development experience), participants receive professional coaching with full adaptive accommodations.

- Professional coaching with adaptive sports expertise
