ABOUT US
your favourite Victoria Wheelchair Sports Club!
We are a non-profit society that was incorporated in 1997. Since then, we have provided adaptive sport opportunities, for over 25 years, to those in the Greater Victoria area. We both work and interact with other adaptive sport agencies, throughout both British Columbia and Canada. Our athletes, programs and even instruction vary anywhere from the amateur to national/professional level sports.
We gratefully acknowledge the financial support of the Province of British Columbia Government. Our programs are successful from the generous support of various:
Governmental and Public Funding Agencies and Grants,
World Class Recreation Facilities and Centres,
Amazing Adaptive Sport Organizations, Coaches & Sponsors, and
Generous Financial Donors!
We are grateful and humble to everyone involved, to allow us to do what we do best.
