Just to tell you a bit about ourselves. We were
established as a charity in 2016. We are a sports
club for people with disabilities to play
wheelchair rugby.
Wheelchair Rugby combines elements of
basketball, rugby, and ice hockey. Players
compete in teams of four to carry a ball across
the opposing team's goal line. Contact between
wheelchairs is permitted and is in fact an integral
part of the sport as players use their chairs to
block and hold opponents. Wheelchair rugby
players compete in manual wheelchairs
specifically designed for the sport. Wheelchair
Rugby is a Paralympic sport, with over twenty -six
countries competing in international
competition. Great Britain managed to secure the
gold medal in the Tokoyo Paralympics.
To be eligible to play Wheelchair Rugby
(Paralympic) individuals must have a disability
which affects the arms and legs. Mostplayers|| Charity Accounts templates – Trustees’ annual report for the period October 2016 2 of 11 |||| |---|---|---| |||| |||have spinal cord injuries with full or partial
paralysis of the legs and partial paralysis of the
arms. Other disability groups who play include
cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, amputations,
polio, and other neurological conditions. Men
and women compete on the same teams and in
the same competitions. Players are assigned a
sport classification based on their level of
disability; teams must field 4 players (Paralympic)
or 5 players (WR5’S) with a mixture of
Classification values, this allows players with
different functional abilities to compete together.
WR5’s is a much newer version of the sport and
allows people with a much wider range of
disabilities to compete.
RGC currently are competing in championship
league of the National league.
Anyone is welcome to join our club, male,
female, adult, or child. The sport can be played
by the disabled or non-disabled as a means of
keeping fit.| |Statement confirming whether the
