BC Wheelchair Basketball Society (BCWBS) thanks everyone who made HOOPFEST 2015 such a big success. The event raised nearly $15,000 to help people with disabilities across the province. Thank you to all our amazing sponsors and partners and to everyone who came out to try wheelchair basketball.
Congratulations to the Burnaby Firefighters, who have once again won HOOPFEST. The Burnaby Firefighters have won the event for over 10 years and they’re so good that we think they should start playing in the BC provincial wheelchair basketball league!
The final rankings were:
- Burnaby Firefighters
- Vancouver Police Department
- Surrey Firefighters
- Deans Knight Financial
- Friends of BC Wheelchair Basketball Society
- Pick n’ Rollers
- Steamworks/ TSN Radio Vancouver
- YVR
- Stage & Screen
- Viasport
A special congratulations to Fraser and Simon from Deans Knight Financials, who won the Steamworks Ping Pong Challenge. Congratulations as well to Rob Reese of TSN/Steamworks (aka "Steam 1040") who won the Fortius Fitness Challenge. A great big thank you (and congratulations) to Deans Knight Financial, which were our top fundraising team.
