About Quad Rugby

Originally developed in Canada in 1977, quad rugby is a competitive game in which two teams of four players in wheelchairs attempt to maneuver the game ball over their opponent's goal line while in possession of the ball. It is an exciting game with aggressive players and fast-paced action. Quad rugby is played primarily by individuals who have quadriplegia or those with cerebral palsy or post-polio syndrome. There are approximately 50 teams throughout the United States.
