How a match works, in a minute
How a wheelchair basketball game works
- Wheelchair basketball is five-a-side basketball in sports wheelchairs, on a normal court with a normal basket.
- The chair counts as part of the player. A player holding the ball may push the wheels no more than twice before dribbling, passing or shooting.
- Each player is classified from 1.0 to 4.5 points; a lower number means more activity limitation. The five on court together may not total more than 14 points.
- As in basketball, the team with more points wins.
How long
Four quarters of 10 minutes.
