GSIL’s 11th Annual wheelchair basketball fundraiser, Hoops on Wheels will be Saturday at Memorial Field in Concord, NH. Hoops on Wheels is an all-day basketball tournament where players maneuver the court using wheelchairs – whether they have a disability or not! We are increasing the ways to participate this year to include some traditional ‘field day’ activities to take full advantage of the outdoor setting and offerings at Memorial Field. Back again this year – the REM Wheelchair Challenge Course!  Hoops not your thing?  Take a turn around the track in a handcycle or give the wheelchair obstacle course a try.
