The Home of Powerchair Sports
Did you know that Greenbank Sports Academy has 22 sports electric wheelchairs? The chairs are used for power hockey and power football clubs that train and compete every week. Each player has their name above the chair that they use. Our Power Hockey team are British champions and our Power Football team are currently top of the English Championship.
“I tried out Power Hockey for the first time in 2012 at Greenbank after being told about if by my neurologist at the hospital. It was the start of my love for hockey. One of the things I love about Power Hockey is that the rules are so quick and easy to understandthat nearly anyone can play it. This means I am able to play with my friends who do not have a disability. It allows everyone to be equal and I can have the same physical ability as them when playing it.”
