About this Event
Powerchair soccer has been described as “playing soccer in go karts!” by our athletes. Plastic or metal footguards are attached to the front of power wheelchairs to maneuver a giant soccer ball. It is a fast paced sport that requires teamwork and skillful driving, which helps to build power-chair skills, dexterity and hand eye coordination.
All ages and ability levels are welcome. No experience needed and foot-guards are provided. However, an individual must have their own power wheelchair to participate.
Pre-registration is required to ensure we have enough equipment. The first session for new players is always free.
All fees include ACPSA membership. Please visit our website for details on membership.
Program Description:Join us for this fast-paced team sport, held in a fun, supportive environment to develop soccer skills. Players are introduced to different drills and strategies to challenge their teamwork and driving skills. The driving and reflex skills gained will improve an individual’s ability to navigate their environment even outside of the soccer court.
