There is still time for all international wheelchair basketball athletes to join in a global conversation to discuss and help shape the future IWBF Players’ Commission.

The IWBF Athlete Steering Committee, who have been actively preparing the foundations to establish and institutionalise a common voice for wheelchair basketball players in the governance of the sport through a Players’ Commission, have invited all international wheelchair basketball players to have their say in shaping the future commission.

Here Australia’s Ella Sabljak, the Asia Oceania Representative on the committee, explains how important it is to have an athlete voice and how you can get involved.
