Wheelchair tennis is all about dynamic movement, on-point positioning and serious racket skills. In this video, we explain the history, the players and the rules of wheelchair tennis.

Wheelchair tennis has come a long way since the 1970s, when Brad Parks and Jeff Minnenbraker realised its potential and set up exhibition matches to gain publicity. This is wheelchair tennis explained.

I am watching tennis since 2006 and today only I knew all about Wheelchair tennis and its 2 bounce rule. Thanks. Amazing production quality.

I love this. Purely for covering a sport played by people with disabilities, I hope you make it big this year!

The game is not fair to paraplegic with Torso lesion, without core capability. You can't mix a amputee with a paraplegic and expect a fair game.
