The IWBF Technical Commission plays a vital role in maintaining and enhancing the standards of wheelchair basketball. Its primary responsibility is to oversee the development, interpretation, and practical application of the Official Wheelchair Basketball Rules. The commission drafts rule amendments for consideration by the IWBF Executive Council and provides guidance on resolving cases that may not be clearly addressed by existing rules.
In addition to rules, the Technical Commission ensures that modifications to equipment and playing courts are evaluated and proposed for approval.
The Commission is also responsible for the training, examination, and qualification of international referees, referee supervisors and referee instructors, ensuring that officials are well-prepared for major international competitions. It manages the selection of referees for key events, such as the World Championships and Paralympic Games, upholding the highest standards of officiating in the sport.
