Dallas Jr. Wheelchair Mavericks
Bachman Recreation Center
The Dallas Junior Wheelchair Mavericks Basketball Association comes from a long tradition of Junior Wheelchair basketball. In 1979, Variety Wheelchair Arts & Sports Association created the first junior team. The program has had several teams with many different children participating in the program. Several of the children have gone on the compete at the collegiate level hoping to use the knowledge gained in this program as a stepping stone to the Paralympics. In 2006, the Dallas Junior Texans became the Dallas Junior Wheelchair Mavericks in order to unify all the local wheelchair basketball teams: men, women and children. We offer two different ability levels – a prep division (8.5 ft. goal) and our first year in the Varsity Division (10 ft. goal). As the program grows, a Junior Varsity Division (10 ft. goal) will be added back into the association.
