Let’s Play is an initiative of the BC Wheelchair Basketball Society that gives children with physical disabilities in British Columbia access to a sport wheelchair and other resources so they can develop the skills they need to confidently participate in play, sport and physical education with their peers.
Health care providers, school personnel, community leaders and parents work with BC Wheelchair Basketball to identify children and provide the resources required to build fundamental movement and wheelchair sport skills in an inclusive environment…laying a foundation for life long enjoyment and if desired, for sporting success. By supporting Let’s Play kids in the school environment they also expose thousands of children without disabilities to the concepts of disability awareness, acceptance and inclusion which has a significant impact on the social setting in which Let’s Play kids develop their skills and confidence.
