Powering participation with British Wheelchair Basketball

Through our sponsorship of British Wheelchair Basketball (BWB), the Motability Scheme is supporting a sport that brings people together and creates opportunities for everyone to get involved.  


Wheelchair basketball is an exciting game that enables disabled and non-disabled players of all ages to compete side by side. It’s a great way to make friends, build confidence, and improve your health and wellbeing. 

Whether you’d like to play, coach, officiate or volunteer, we’re backing the grassroots game and helping more people to take part. 

Young players in wheelchairs compete in a basketball game, with one player in an orange jersey taking a shot while two defenders raise their arms to block.

Opportunities for everyone 

The Motability Scheme Inspire League offers a welcoming space for recreational teams who want to compete in a supportive setting. 

With an emphasis on positivity, inclusivity and progression, it’s designed to give players, coaches and officials the chance to grow and enjoy the sport together. 

The league enables people to develop their skills and involvement in a more open and accessible way, with features including:

  • A local or regional competition structure
  • A more inclusive and flexible approach
  • A tailored support package for new teams
  • Each team hosting only one event day per season
  • Groups of 3–6 teams per competition
  • Equal opportunities for everyone to play and develop
  • A new Under-14s league and Adult (over-14s) league
