About Unified Basketball:
The Unified Basketball League is an extra-curricular opportunity for students with identified cognitive or physical disabilities. Participants play on a basketball team with their age-appropriate peer helpers. Unified Basketball is a part of Champions Together, a partnership of the IHSAA and Special Olympics.
This is a fantastic opportunity for our students to work together, and it is a great opportunity for fans to come out and support true sportsmanship and teamwork. We hope you’ll consider joining us in cheering our teams on!
