There are also hopes the sport can grow on Island in future
People on Island are being invited to try out the sport of wheelchair rugby league this evening (21 February).
A session is being held at 7pm tonight at the NSC in Douglas for adults of all ages and abilities as well as children over the age of eight.
It's co-founder Adam Knight hopes this evening's event can be a stepping stone to growing the sport further locally for the future.
What's more, he feels wheelchair rugby can be a great social environment for people to get involved with:
Snooker: Hurricanes in 'pole' position heading into league's final week
Football: Peel keep lead over Corinthians in Women's Premier League
Football: Peel close gap on Corinthians in premier league title race
Rugby: Douglas secure Regional 2 North West play-off spot despite defeat
