Rugby Wheelchair in UK and Ireland - both Attack and Defense models available

December 13th, 2016

Wheelchair Rugby is a hugely popular sport in the UK and Ireland and we now offer sports wheelchairs specifically designed for either attack or defense.

In particular - our range of Club wheelchairs from Roma Medical are perfect for Wheelchair Rugby clubs that have members or players that do not have a chair of their own.

These rugby wheelchairs come in a variety of sizes in terms of seat width - ranging from 380mm wide right up to 480mm wide.

You can see from the images that these rugby wheelchairs have;

Spoke protectors to protect players during the game
Anti tips at the rear

The different styles available are suited to either playing an offensive or a defensive role in the team.

They come with all the build quality you would expect from Roma Medical who have supplied sports wheelchairs to competitors at the recent Paralympics, the Invictus Games and the World Wheelchair Rugby Championship.

Produced in a modern purpose built facility in Wales, only the very best quality raw materials and components are used in the manufacture of these unique wheelchairs. In addition to the standard models, those wheelchair athletes who require a bespoke rugby wheelchair can purchase at an additional charge, a wheelchair to fit their own body shape using our own patented measuring system.

Roma Sport Rugby Wheelchairs conform to all international rules and specifications of the IWRF. With more than 30 years experience in the manufacture of standard wheelchairs they are able to fully utilise in-house skills and machinery, which enables us to reduce the order time to delivery.

Spinergy wheels are fitted as standard to all chairs. Roma utilises the latest production and R&D techniques which includes their very own rolling road facility which enables us to vigorously test all components and products.

Working closely with Great Britain Wheelchair Rugby they supply both offensive and defensive models.
