Adrina Castro

I’m Adrina Castro AKA @itty_bitty_beastmode and spina bifida is my superpower. I play wheelchair basketball.

Adaptive sports have really changed my life. After my second spine surgery, I never thought I would play sports again until I found wheelchair basketball. I train almost every day and was even named the Sports and Spokes 2020 junior athlete of the year.

To someone who is thinking about trying adaptive sports, I would say "Just go for it. You’ll never know if you like it if you don’t try it."

My goals are to become a multi time Paralympian , earn a college scholarship for basketball, play basketball overseas and open an adaptive training center with my sister.
