Low Point Wheelchair Rugby Debuts at TWG2022 Birmingham

Low point wheelchair rugby makes its debut at The World Games 2022 in Birmingham, USA July 14-17. Canada, Germany, Great Britain, Japan, Switzerland and USA will compete to see who has the world’s best low pointers.

Canada, Great Britain and Japan come into the competition with experienced rosters packed with Paralympic talent, but that will not secure them the gold. Germany and Switzerland may not have the same storied resumes, but they have a history of producing top low pointers and are ready to assert themselves as leaders in the game. USA brings its very first low point team to Birmingham – a squad of fresh talent eager to compete in front of a home-nation crowd. It is going to be a thrilling four days of competition.

Currently, the games will not be live streamed, but you can follow World Wheelchair Rugby social media for score updates after each match, photos and daily recaps.
