HULL LEAD THE WAY IN SUPER LEAGUE WITH NEW WHEELCHAIR RL PROGRAMME

HULL LEAD THE WAY IN SUPER LEAGUE WITH NEW WHEELCHAIR RL PROGRAMME

Hull FC wheelchair Rugby League is back for 2011 and this time it is bigger and better than ever before.

The ever-growing stature of wheelchair Rugby League, a sport that can be played by disabled and able-bodied athletes, is being embraced in the city of Hull with the Black and Whites now offering a new 12-week programme of wheelchair and tag Rugby League in conjunction with Hull City Council.

The free programme, which will run on Monday evenings between 5:30pm and 7:30pm will take place at the home of FC's pioneering Rugby League Academy partnership at Sirius Academy on Pickering Road.

Anyone between the ages of 8 and 19, male and female, will have the chance to sample this new and alternative form of one of the countries most popular sports, learning new skills, techniques, keeping fit and most importantly, getting in some fun game time!

Danny Wilson from the Hull FC Foundation is coordinating the event and he said, "We are delighted we have been able to launch this new programme and lead the way in Super League in promoting the sport of wheelchair Rugby League.

"Whilst we are keen to emphasise that wheelchair Rugby League is open to absolutely everyone we are pleased that we have been able to continue to offer a much more varied choice of sport for disabled users within the city."

He added, "We'd welcome anyone to come down and take part, of all ages and abilities and we look forward to seeing everyone there."

You can take part in the first session of the new wheelchair Rugby League programme this Monday (17th January) at 5:30pm at Sirius Academy.

People wishing to join are asked to meet at Sirius Academy Sports Hall.
