Wheelchair Rugby, aka, Quad Rugby is the fastest growing wheelchair sport in the world today. It is a fast paced team sport that is played indoors on a modified basketball court by individuals who are quadriplegic, or have similar type disabilities. There are more than thirty-five teams here in the United States and the success and popularity of the game has made it a Paralympic sport. file photo
