Wheely good time

Wheely Warriors team member Nick Bryan shoots during the wheelchair basketball tournament at the Edgar Centre yesterday.

His team, also featuring  Stephen Van der Peet (in background) and Tyler West, went on to win the three-a-side tournament, defeating the Wild Hogs 26-10 in the final.

ParaFed Otago sport development officer Kelsey Evans said the "pretty impressive final" was a great finish to an exciting day of competition.

She said the competitors were hoping to head to a wheelchair basketball tournament in Canterbury in July.

ParaFed Otago provides sporting opportunities for those with physical disabilities.

Mrs Evans said the recent acquisition of 10 new multi-sport chairs, with the support of Invacare, had been a boon for her organisation.
