One the best things about wheelchair basketball is it’s community, the experiences of our players, coaches and committee would be vastly difference without their support!

As you know this season there have been some big changes to the South West Scorpions! We have a new look, a new coach, a new venue but what remains the same is the passion from our athletes and dedication to be the best that they can be at wheelchair basketball whilst having fun!

Our vision is to sustain and grow the current club structure accumulating more players in the hopes that we can enter a team into a league next year.

Due to the recent surge in club/team membership fees we fear without support this may not be achievable on top of the clubs current outgoings for training. With this in mind, we’re calling on you: our friends, family, wheelchair basketball lovers and beyond to lend a hand to helping us reach our goal!

We would like to try and raise the funds needed to enable us to continue training every Sunday so we can develop a team who’s ready and able to enter and take on a competitive league.

So what’s the deal?

£10 for a number between 1 and 150, the winner receives £250 and the team receives £1250.

If the full amount hasn't been raised by the end of June then the money will be split with 20% going to the winning sponsor and 80% being retained for the club.

The winning sponsor will be randomly selected by one of club members on Facebook live at the end of July 2019. Comment below a number and we will add it to this post!

Payment can be made in cash to any team member to give to our treasurer at training or PayPal: [email protected].

Our thoughts are with Colin Ilic’s family and everyone at Derby Wheelblazers!

Our thoughts are with Colin Ilic’s family and everyone at Derby Wheelblazers!

We are devastated to share the news about the untimely passing of a friend and a teammate this weekend. Colin Ilic / Actionman / Colipedia / askcol.com / Number 8, tragically passed away playing the game he loves and spent so many years involved in.

The last game of the season and Colin’s last before a planned break V Warwickshire Bears Wheelchair Basketball Academy ended abruptly in the first quarter. We don’t know any more about the cause at this stage.

We could not be more grateful for the amazing support of the Bears first aiders but sadly there was nothing that could be done.

Colin played for a long time across a lot of divisions and was known by many.

More will follow with regard to information about the funeral.

We have so much love for our basketball family.
