We have long standing experience of officiating at meetings of Disabled athletes and also of coaching them in many events. We understand many of the problems arising when disabled athletes need special equipment. We do not supply racing wheelchairs but we can supply field events throwing frames although it may be easier to use a local engineering company but you will need to give them a very precise specification of the needs.
