Applaud and encourage both teams playing.

In the free circulation areas of the site, I respect the

spaces reserved for people with disabilities.

I am respectful of the venue and the environment. I

use the designated paths and throw any litter in the

waste containers provided.

I behave in a civil and exemplary manner.

Violence, racist, discriminatory, sexist, anti-

LGBT+, and oensive remarks or behaviour have

no place at the Games.

SPECTATOR

CODE OF CONDUCT

A mixed-team sport, wheelchair rugby uses

specially designed manual wheelchairs. Two

teams of four players compete over four eight-

minute quarters. The aim of the game is to carry

the ball over the opponent’s try line, and stop

them from doing the same at the other end.

THE EVENT IN A NUTSHELL

A BIT OF HISTORY

Wheelchair rugby oicially joined the Paralympic

programme for the Atlanta 1996 Games.

Invented in Canada in 1977, wheelchair rugby is a

spectacular sport, in which noisy contact, frequently

punctured tyres and even wheelchairs flipping over form

an integral part of the game.

The United States and Australia dominate the medal table

with 7 and 4 gold medals respectively, including 3 and 2 gold.
