Warwickshire Bears looking for young talent across Warwickshire, Solihull and the West Midlands
and live on Freeview channel 276
The Bears offer a community that is far more than simply a basketball team. Our mission is to inspire and support everyone facing obstacles in life and encourage them to turn them into opportunities, however difficult that may seem. We celebrate inclusivity and positivity and encourage both disabled and able-bodied players to take part.
We want to invite more people to have a go at the sport. Whatever age, whatever level, whatever your disability, you are welcome at the Bears to try wheelchair basketball out.

On January 28 Warwickshire Bears are hosting a national tournament, supported by British Wheelchair Basketball, to foster competition and a love of the game amongst our under 14s community. Six teams from across the country, will be playing one another for the prestigious title of Tournament Champion. If you are interested in the sport and want to watch our young talent, come down and check it out.
Or if you would like to join in a free training session, come down to North Solihull sports centre 9.30am every Saturday.
The event is being supported by law firm Irwin Mitchell.
Luke Daniels a specialist medical negligence lawyer at Irwin Mitchell, said: “At Irwin Mitchell, we believe in building strong links within the communities in which we work and supporting good causes.
