    Wheelchair basketball is one of the sport that plays a significant role in the rehabilitation of individuals with special needs. Players must have a high degree of speed and focus their attention on different perceptual situations in the field. A total of 10 players were selected as sample from the Paralympics Subcommittee in the Babylon Province. They were randomly divided into experimental and control groups. After conducting the pre-tests, the combined exercises prepared by researchers were applied to the experimental group. These exercises were given to the experimental group in sessions of 30 minutes, three days per week. The control group followed the traditional curriculum. After conducting the post-test, the data were processed using the SPSS. The results indicated that the combined exercises positively contributed to the development of mental, physical, and dribbling skills of the wheelchair basketball players. Therefore, the authors recommend to include these combined physical exercises in the training curricula.

The study sample consisted of 20 students from the College of Sports Sciences at Mu'tah University who were enrolled in the handball course. They were selected using the purposive method and divided into two equal groups (experimental group = 10 students, and control group = 10 students). An educational program was prepared using small-sided games to teach basic handball skills. The program was implemented during eight weeks, with three meetings per week. The data were processed through the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS).
