Players sit on a chair or in their wheelchair and throw or roll their ball with the goal of landing it closest to the target “jack” ball. Volunteers are needed Wednesdays 1:45-3:45 at Northwood in Halifax to assist in refereeing games and acting as sport attendants to players (passing them the ball, aligning their ramp, etc.).
