Wheelchair Rugby (a.k.a. Quad Rugby or Murderball) is a simple game with complex strategies for playing both offense and defense. It is played with a ball similar to a volleyball on a basketball-size court with goal lines marked by cones and a lined-off 'key' area. The object is to score a goal (1 point) by crossing the goal line with possession of the ball while the opposing team defends. Wheelchair Rugby is a full-contact sport, but no personal contact is allowed.
