The Queensland Gladiators participate in the National Electric Wheelchair Sports (NEWS) competition, held annually in Sydney. They play the sports of balloon soccer, hockey, and rugby league, each being five-a-side. Each sport is designed for people with neuromuscular conditions, and all athletes must use an electric wheelchair for their everyday mobility. The Queensland Gladiators are supported b

y Muscular Dystrophy Queensland, the Inala PCYC, and Stateside. However, the team pays their own way to get to Sydney each year, so if you would like to lend a hand, please send us a message! Any support would be greatly appreciated.

In association with the National Electric Wheelchair Sports page, we're going to begin bringing you grand final classics for your Friday viewing! This is the 2009 Rugby League Final, played between WA and NSW. Never seen wheelchair league before? We pass by calling a teammate's number, who says 'Got it' to complete the pass. Enjoy!

To all NEWS athletes, helpers, and those who offered to help out, we are going to have to cancel this Saturday's training session. We have illness, broken chairs, and the possibility of flooding in the general area. I will send an email to all involved, too. Sorry, and thanks!
