Developed in France back in 2000, Wheelchair Rugby League was introduced to our shores back in 2005. The game is quite unique in that it offers both disabled and non-disabled players the opportunity to compete both with and against each other. No matter what gender or age all players compete on level playing field which is created by the use of wheelchairs and some slight adaptions of the rules of

Rugby League. A brief overview of the game includes:
* There are five players on each side
* The object of the game is to score tries
* Conversions are scored by punching the ball over the mini-posts from a tee
* Tackles are made in the same way as Tag Rugby by pulling off the attached tag
* Five tackles are followed by the handing over of possession
* Offside, knock-on and in-touch apply just like in the full version of the game
