Story is pretty much the same like in tennis for able-body players. The difficulty is, to push the wheelchair so quick, that is possible to answer the ball before it hits the field more than 2 times.
Players are using special constructed wheelchairs with stronger frame and small wheels in front and at the back - to be safe and not to fall down.
Beside that, the player needs the same equipment like regular tennis player - good rocket, even better strings and the most important - talent and strong will to play! To improve the game - regular training is necessary. Is very hard to find good trainer for wheelchair tennis. And of course, not very expensive one, because the price money in this sport is so much different than in regular tennis. So we need to be a good managers. :)
We are looking all the time for sponsors, for support from our sport clubs and from everybody who wants to help. Because this gives opportunity to play. And I want to play a lot! :)
So, what do you think about the game? Would you like to try some time? Just for fun?
