What do you know about powerchair football?

Did you know that the 2023 FIPFA Powerchair Football World Cup has taken place this week, with the final taking place tomorrow (20 October)?

To celebrate the tournament and to raise awareness of powerchair football, we had Adam McEvoy, the national development manager at the Wheelchair Football Association, on the latest episode of Coachcast.

This season you may have noticed that we've asked our guests to set coaching challenges/questions for the community. And Adam has set the following for those that don't know much about powerchair football:

"Yeah, I think I've got a nice coaching challenge actually, which shouldn't be too much of a difficult thing for coaches to try. I'd like coaches, having listened to this now, to go onto YouTube to see if they can bring up and get some activity and see the game in action, look at it and understand how the game looks and see the links to the format that they're involved with, and then potentially talk about it. Say, I've watched powerchair football, be it through their social media, or be it through England Football Learning on their website, make a comment and just talk about, I've seen this fantastic format called powerchair football and these are some of the things that I noticed. Can they do that and have a go?"

Let us know what you discovered below. And if anyone coaches powerchair football, share your top coaching tips with others in the comments.

Thanks!
