If your child has a physical impairment and is aged between 8 and 17 years old, then they can play wheelchair rugby. Wheelchair Rugby is a mixed gender sport and has two versions of wheelchair rugby, catering for different levels of impairments.
Your child does not need to be a wheelchair user to play, every child who has a permanent physical disability can play wheelchair rugby.
