Melbourne City FC was established in 2015 and competes in the Victorian Powerchair League which is facilitated by Powerchair Sports Victoria. The Victorian Powerchair League is running from February to July in 2022.
Powerchair Football is a competitive team sport designed and developed specifically for powerchair / electric wheelchair users. These participants include persons with quadriplegia, multiple sclerosis, muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, head trauma, stroke, spinal cord injury and other disabilities. Powerchair Football combines the skill of the wheelchair user with the speed and power of the chair itself. The sport is played on an indoor basketball court. Two teams of four power chair users attack, defend, and spin-kick a 13-inch (33cm) soccer ball in an attempt to score goals.
Our club welcome all ages, all genders and all abilities to join us. You can keep up-to-date with the teams activities on our Facebook page.
