A Special Olympics Basketball team typically consists of five players on the court at any given time, similar to standard basketball teams. However, the total roster can include additional players for substitutions, often ranging from 8 to 12 players, depending on the tournament or local program guidelines. This structure allows for more participation and inclusion among athletes with intellectual disabilities.
In a Special Olympics basketball game, there are typically ten players on the court at any given time, with five players from each team. This format mirrors standard basketball rules, where each team fields five players during play. Adjustments may be made for individual competitions or specific event formats, but the standard team size remains the same.
