Story
Lucy started playing Wheelchair Tennis in 2002 following a motorbike accident which left her paralysed from the chest down. She has since gone on to represent Great Britain at three successive Paralympics; Beijing 2008, London 2012 and Rio 2016. You can read more on Lucy here.
Lucy is a personal friend of mine, a Paralympian medallist and lives right here in Fleet, Hampshire. Lucy is presently the UK number 1 wheelchair tennis champion, world number 5 in singles and number 3 in doubles. Lucy recently came runner-up at Wimbledon this year and is in need of a new competitive wheelchair which she travels and competes with as she represents us during competition. A competitive wheelchair is a made to measure chair and designed specifically for wheelchair athletes which differs significantly from day-to-day chairs.
Let's show Lucy support and how much we appreciate her inspiration as she represents us!

There is also a CHL Knockout Wii Tennis competition, sponsored by Tracey Gilbert® (£1 entry).
