About
The Roller Hawks entered the National Wheelchair Basketball League in 2001, becoming the first regional team to play at the highest level in Australia. Although many of the athletes who play in the league are Australian representatives and/or Paralympians, they are not professional athletes as their NBL able-bodied counterparts are.
The Roller Hawks and Illawarra Wheelchair Basketball promotes inclusion for all people with a disability through development pathways, school visits and community days by using sport as a great rehabilitator for injury and illness.
