Wheelchair basketball has rapidly risen in popularity and its success in England has been marked by the club London Titans. One of the most popular wheelchair basketball clubs in the country, it has produced more than 50 Team GB players.
As a gesture of appreciation to the clubs dedication, Anita Choudhrie’s charity, Path to Success, is organising a corporate wheelchair basketball tournament to support London Titans by investing all donations for the benefit of the team. Copper Box Arena, the Olympic famed venue, will host the event on April 26th and Team GB Paralympians will be the celebrities participating.
Anita Choudhrie, founder of Path to Success, revealed the reasons behind choosing wheelchair basketball: “Our goal for the day is to create an open and positive environment within which colleagues can experience the competitive nature of wheelchair basketball for the first time – we’re also aiming to raise as much as possible for London Titans.”
“We are offering a unique experience to get away from the office and create lasting memories, while also raising money for an exceptional cause.”
A five-time Team GB Paralympian, Ann Wild OBE, will coach the teams to ensure, competitive spirits are high and exciting.
The games will be played parallel on two courts and the winners will face-off for a nail-biting final. The event will be hosted from 9 am – 5 pm and the teams willing to are providing a voluntary donation of £5,000.
Even after London Titans have proved themselves time and again, they haven’t received any central sports funding. The donations raised from this event would be invested in sports wheelchairs, match fees, court hire and the transport and coaching of London Titans.
Spectators can also be a part of this exciting event.
Teams that want to join can contact Nasim.malhotra@pathtosuccess.org.uk.
