Annual youth wheelchair hosted by Bridge II Sports, a non-profit supported by venue Rocky Mount Event Center, begins December 7

DURHAM, N.C., Dec. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Bridge II Sports is honored to bring the spirit of the Old North State Classic (ONSC) to Rocky Mount for the fifth year, on December 7 8, 2024, with the continued support of our venue sponsor Rocky Mount Event Center (RMEC).

Since 2018, ONSC has engaged over 1,000 youth with disabilities from all over the East Coast through the power of adapted sports competition and camaraderie.

ONSC is excited to have access to the wonderfully accessible Event Center in Rocky Mount, NC, for the traditional weekend tournament. Athletes will be competing across four courts, spanning Prep and Jr. Varsity (5 years old to 18 years) in a sanctioned National Wheelchair Basketball Tournament. This year's event will consist of one and a half days of intense wheelchair basketball action in December.

Please come and cheer for this event in person! Admission and parking are free. This year the action will also be livestreamed on the

Bridge II Sports YouTube channel

in collaboration with Leading Edge Multimedia. The full production includes mounted backboard cameras, player graphics, and historic courtside announcing/interviews by basketball legends.

The Old North State Classic is a special event infused with the energy of empowerment and community as kids play the sport they love. This life-changing event is made possible through funding from BridgeIISports, and support from several community and corporate partners. For the fourth time in five years, RMEC is serving as the event sponsor of ONSC. Beyond providing generous event space, RMEC has engaged in fully supporting the Bridge II Sports mission to help find the player within.
