Coway Blue Wheels Teach Wheelchair Basketball to Gyeonggi Teachers

Training held for 20 special education and general education teachers in Icheon

Coway said on the 13th that its wheelchair basketball team, Coway Blue Wheels, took part in the "2026 Training Program to Strengthen Inclusive Education Competencies" at Samsung Hall in Icheon Athletes' Village, Gyeonggi-do, on November 11, where it taught local teachers how to coach wheelchair basketball.

Organized by the Special Education Support Center of the Gyeonggi Icheon Office of Education, the program was designed to strengthen educators' ability to put inclusive education into practice, helping students with and without disabilities learn and grow together. Coway Blue Wheels taught wheelchair basketball theory and skills to 20 special education and general education teachers from the Icheon area.

Since last year, Coway has held the Coway Cup, an inclusive sports competition for students with and without disabilities, and has run wheelchair basketball experience classes in partnership with educational institutions.

A Coway representative said, "We hope this training will help inclusive physical education take root in schools and contribute to creating an environment where students with and without disabilities can play and sweat together. We will continue to make a practical contribution to creating an education environment free of discrimination and a more inclusive society, using wheelchair basketball as a bridge."
