Gameplay
British Wheelchair Basketball is played on a standard basketball court with a slightly smaller playing area. The game is played with a specially designed wheelchair that has a lower center of gravity and a wider base for stability. The players use their hands to propel themselves and the ball, and they are allowed to use their feet to block shots and rebounds.
The game is played with two teams of five players each. The objective of the game is to score more points than the opposing team by throwing the ball through the opponent's basket. The game is played in four quarters, each of which is 10 minutes long.
Rules
The rules of British Wheelchair Basketball are similar to the rules of able-bodied basketball, with some modifications to accommodate the use of wheelchairs. For example, players are not allowed to use their feet to dribble the ball, and they are not allowed to charge into an opponent's wheelchair.
