“As proud sponsor of the Canadian Women’s National Wheelchair Basketball Team, Hooper Law shares the team’s passion and drive to win”, says Rob Hooper, “but most importantly, our new relationship will give us even better insights and methods to help clients deal with and adjust to physical or emotional adversity as a result of their injury. These athletes offer real life inspiration because they’ve shown it is possible to overcome the challenges they’ve faced, and to excel at the highest levels”.
“Wheelchair Basketball Canada believes in the power of sport to improve people’s lives and we are thrilled to work with Hooper Law, a dedicated firm that shares that belief,” said Executive Director Wendy Gittens. “Our women’s national team program is unwavering in its pursuit of athletic excellence and Hooper Law will be an important partner in supporting Team Canada as our women strive for the podium in 2016 and beyond.”
