What is Wheelchair Rugby League
Wheelchair Rugby League is unique in that it offers both disabled and non-disabled players of all genders the opportunity to compete both with and against each other on a level playing field.
The sport is faithful to the rules of Rugby League:
• Five players in each team score tries in exactly the same way as running Rugby League
• Conversions are scored by punching the ball from a tee over mini-RL posts
• Tackles are made as in tag RL by taking the attached tag or flag
• Five tackles are followed by handing over the rugby ball to the opposition
• Offside, knock-on and in touch applies as per Rugby League
The WRL Wheelchair Invitational League launched in 2023 to provide opportunities for Wheelchair players in Wales to play in a competitive league whilst also assisting the development of the game. Our matches are 30 minutes each way, any age any gender can play.
Each side is only allowed one elite player on the pitch at once. At elite player is classed as someone who plays for a Super League club.
