Rolling Timberwolves

Let’s team up for the Rolling Timberwolves! 

The Rolling Timberwolves represent our adult teams competing in the National Wheelchair Basketball Association. In 2024, we proudly introduced a second adult team to provide even more opportunities for play! These teams consist of numerous adults who have experience in wheelchair basketball at various levels, including high school, college, professional leagues overseas, and even the Paralympics. They bring a fierce competitive spirit and know how to enjoy themselves on the courtTo compete, they travel out of state for tournaments across the nationThe Rolling Timberwolves embody more than just a team; they are a community.
