Played by the same rules as able-bodied tennis, except that a wheelchair player gets two bounces to return the ball instead of one. Wheelchair tennis is one the few sports where a disabled person can effectively compete with able-bodied players.
WSI Tennis Program offers lessons for youth and adults at a minimal cost. In 2008 lessons ran for 15 weeks at a cost of $30. This covered instructor, tennis equipment, tennis wheelchairs and court time.
We currently host a USTA sanctioned wheelchair tennis tournament each summer.
