Penrith Pumas WRC is a unique sports club running in the heart of Cumbria. Offering you the local community the opportunity to participate in the only full contact Paralympic Sport of Wheelchair Rugby!
The sport has shown me that no matter what a person’s ability is, there is a role for them within the sport not just playing but other routes like volunteering on the bench, officiating or even refereeing.
I introduced the sport into Cumbria to enable individuals with any physical impairments or hidden disabilities in or out of a wheelchair to access an all-inclusive, thrill seeking, adrenaline rush full contact sport!
We’re more than just a team — we’re a family. Penrith Pumas is a unique disability sports club in Carlisle and Cumbria, giving people the chance to enjoy competitive sport, improve fitness and feel part of something meaningful.
