Lightning PFC has recently been formed and four very competitive young players have already taken up the challenge.

Powered wheelchair football is one of the most exciting sports for people with a range of disabilities. To control a ball from a wheelchair is a skill on its own and to control it with speed is exciting.

Coach Sharlene Rainey said: “This is an exciting opportunity for wheelchair users of all abilities to learn new skills and take part in a fantastic fast paced team sport under experienced leadership.”
