Student Volunteers

The Philadelphia Flyers PowerPlay are a power wheelchair floor hockey team based in the Philadelphia metropolitan area. Power wheelchair floor hockey, more commonly known as Powerhockey, is played by people who use power wheelchairs in their everyday lives.

The Flyers PowerPlay have been providing this athletic and social opportunity since 2003. The Flyers PowerPlay tournament team won the US Powerhockey championship in 2013, the Powerhockey Cup in 2018, and the Canada Cup in 2019, which saw them face the best Powerhockey teams in North America.

The Flyers PowerPlay currently play games at Neumann University in Aston, PA and Norristown PAL in Norristown, PA twice a month on Saturdays.
