Sign Pro works with UConn’s Kevin Ollie to Help Open Wheelchair Accessible Court
On Monday June 6, 2016, UConn’s men’s basketball coach, Kevin Ollie, opened his first wheelchair accessible basketball court in Hartford, Connecticut. The court was built at the Asylum Hill Boys & Girls Club, and is the first of its kind. This is no surprise, as Hartford is the first city in the country to start the Boys and Girls Club movement.
Kevin’s Kourt is a basketball court for anyone with disabilities. It features ten different hoops that accommodate a wide variety of disabilities; it is completely wheelchair accessible, providing everyone ease of access. During his speech on Monday, Ollie proudly said, “This is our gift to the city of Hartford.”
