  • The impact of Baskin on promoting inclusion in a secondary School is one of the fundamental goals in the education of adolescents with and without disabilities. Baskin, an inclusive sport inspired by basketball, aims to encourage the active participation of all students regardless of their physical and cognitive abilities. This experimental study with a randomised parallel group design investigated the effects of a Baskin programme (12 weeks, two sessions per week) on class cohesion, self-esteem and inclusive attitudes in a secondary school. At the end of the intervention, the experimental group showed a significant improvement in all indicators of social inclusion and psychophysical well-being compared to the control group. The results highlight the potential of Baskin as an educational sport strategy to promote inclusion and the overall development of students.
