Eastern Blue Stars Women's Wheelchair Basketball Club

Players.

We currently have a squad of 10.

Becky.

Becky is a key part of the team – without her, we would be scoring baskets in the wrong hoop.

Eve.

Eve is one of the team managers. She started playing wheelchair basketball once she realised that players did not need to be daily wheelchair users to be able to play (side note: she is a wheelchair user now). She loves the Women’s League weekends, as it’s a chance to hang out with likeminded people and to sprint up and down the court.

Fiona can be spotted applying red lipstick on a regular basis.
