1st time our team has being nationally ranked!
This was our last game from this past weekend in Sacramento. Great to see the progress weโre making!
Meet Tommy Schroeder, alongside his father Tom, they've been the driving force behind Gem State Falcons. Their shared vision? To bring wheelchair sports to Idaho and open up a world of opportunities.
Tommy's journey with wheelchair sports began in fourth grade. It was more than just a game - it was a gateway to independence, resilience, and limitless possibilities.
With Gem State Falcons, Tommy and Tom are dedicated to providing these same opportunities to children and adults. Being in a chair doesn't mean you can't do what others can - it simply means you play the game differently. ๐๐ฆ
Join us in our mission to empower, inspire, and redefine the game.

To our committed players, unwavering supporters, and the entire Boise community, thank you for being part of our extraordinary journey. Your relentless support propels our performance on the court and our initiatives beyond it. Here's to more triumphs, development, and influencing lives through adaptive sports. Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Gem State Falcons!
Meet Tom Schroeder, the co-founder of Gem State Falcons and Idaho Adaptive Sports. A year ago, we brought to life Idaho's first NWBA wheelchair basketball team - the Gem State Falcons. Our journey didn't stop there. We moved under the umbrella of Idaho Adaptive Sports, a 501(c)(3) organization, creating a platform for all adaptive athletes of all ages. Our mission is simple - empower individuals with physical disabilities through the power of sports. Basketball is our catalyst, bringing everyone together, and opening up a world of opportunities. Join us on this journey and see the transformation unfold. ๐
