South Africa’s U23 Men’s wheelchair basketball team wrapped up their first week of the IWBF Africa Northern Region Tournament in spectacular fashion, proving they are here to dominate.
The team started Day 5 with an impressive 31-17 victory over DR Congo in the morning match, setting the tone for what was to come. Later in the day, they showed no signs of slowing down as they played against Liberia with the same energy as their first game—delivering a jaw-dropping 103-11 thrashing, much to the crowd’s delight.
