RETURN OF THE NATIONAL WHEELCHAIR TOURNAMENT
July 2023 the Belt Up Perth Wheelcats travelled to Morayfield to compete in a National Wheelchair League Tournamant. After a large lay off it was nice to see the athletes back on court and competing hard. Both teams finished the tournament in 3rd, after a gruelling few days of Competitions. Teams from Darwin, Wollongong, Qld and Sydney.
