The Sport
What Is Power Soccer?
The only competitive team sport designed for athletes who use power wheelchairs.
The Basics
Fast, strategic, and 100% the athlete's own
Played indoors on a basketball court, power soccer uses power wheelchairs fitted with specialized foot guards to strike a 13-inch ball. Two teams of four compete in a fast-paced game that rewards skill, spacing, communication, and teamwork.

Ages 7 & Up
Co-ed and open to girls and boys ages 7 and up, with no upper age limit. Everyone competes together.
100% Independent

Who Can Play

Power soccer is open to athletes who use a power wheelchair for daily mobility. No prior experience is needed to start — sport chairs are available to try, and in many cases we can adapt an athlete's current chair.
Athletes commonly live with:
- Cerebral Palsy (CP)
- Muscular Dystrophy (including Duchenne)
- Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA)
- Spinal Cord Injuries
- Spina Bifida
- Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
- ALS
- Arthrogryposis
- Any condition requiring a power chair for daily mobility
