Match Report
Scot Wheelchair
Wales have played their first ever Wheelchair internationals, finishing second to England in a Home Nations tournament.
England attained a 3-0 undefeated streak in the first ever Wheelchair Four Nations tournament this weekend in Hull featuring uncapped internationals from the home nations squads.
England Head Coach Steve McNamara was in attendance to present the medals and is a big fan of the sport.
He said: “It was fascinating. Rugby league in general is a highly competitive and physical encounter and you certainly see that in the Wheelchair game. It was great to see the enjoyment of the game in everyone that was here today. The enthusiasm of all that were involved was fantastic to see.”
“We are very inclusive as a sport and we certainly look after each other. Regardless of which bracket they are under, whether it’s the women, the Knights, our academy, they are all serving under the England banner and the Wheelchair team are a great addition to our Rugby League family.”
The opening day saw England and Wales claim confident victories. Wales started their campaign with a 20-6 verdict over Scotland while England bagged a 34-12 success against Ireland. Wales continued their winning ways as they closed out the first day with a 44-4 win over Ireland.
