Wheelchair Rugby

Wheelchair Sports NSW/ACT is the governing body for Wheelchair Rugby in NSW and the ACT. We are always looking for new players to get involved and join us in this great sport.

Wheelchair Rugby is an intense, physical team sport for all genders who have an impairment in all four limbs.

At Wheelchair Sports NSW/ACT, we have two Clubs for Wheelchair Rugby – Sydney University and the Rolling Wildfires. Our Clubs train weekly, compete in the Club Challenge, and also the Wheelchair Rugby National League.

Players can then be selected into the GIO NSW Gladiators or ACT Buccaneers for the Wheelchair Rugby National Championships.

Please get in touch with us to get involved in this great sport.
