Welcome to the official Golden State Road Warriors Wheelchair basketball team website. The Road Warriors are
excited to launch this site for those who are interested in following the team or seeking to become an active
member of the wheelchair basketball community.
The Golden State Wheelchair Basketball program began in 1976. Founded by Bill Duncan. The program started as
the Golden State 76ers, playing basketball around the country and barely making the bottom 25 in
Sports N’ Spokes, the official wheelchair sports magazine in its first year. But the team was thrilled
to have its name in print, to let the wheelchair basketball world know that they existed.
The hard work and dedication from the players, the coaches, and supporters paid off as the Road Warriors have
become one of the premier teams in the NWBA. The defining moments came in 2001 and 2004 when the team
captured the ever-elusive championship trophy as the top team in the NWBA.
