Keynote Speaker

 

David Kiley is one of the most accomplished athletes in disability sports. Acknowledged as one of the greatest players in the history of wheelchair basketball, he has excelled on a world-class level in basketball, tennis, skiing and track. He has won two gold, one silver, and two bronze medals in basketball during the Paralympic games. 

 

Kiley led his team to a record eight NWBA championships. During this time he was a 19-time All-American and holds the record as a six-time NWBA Tournament MVP. He was elected to the National Wheelchair Basketball Association (NWBA) Hall of Fame in 2000.

 

 

Along with his basketball medals, Dave won four gold medals in track at

the 1976 Toronto Paralympic Games and took home two gold and two

silver medals in downhill skiing at the 1992 Winter Paralympics in

Albertville, France.  He has traveled the world to promote disability

sports including a trip to South Africa and to war-torn Bosnia. In 1993,

he was honored with the Magic Johnson/Jerry Buss Humanitarian Award.
