From the outset, the IWTF's development programmes were all about increasing awareness of wheelchair tennis around the world. "New" countries were constantly encouraged to become involved and existing countries and established players were encouraged to assist.

It takes character. For some, “getting back up” involves an intellectual activity but for others it is sport. Since it was founded in 1976, wheelchair tennis has become the fastest growing disability sport. But more than an activity, wheelchair tennis gives people the chance to regain self-belief, to push the limits and, perhaps most importantly, to smile again. From its humble beginnings as a leisure activity, wheelchair tennis is now conducted on a professional basis with its own tournament circuit, ranking system and prize money. Yet 25 years ago, the sport barely existed. Commonly considered the founder of wheelchair tennis, Brad Parks was injured when he was 18 and had to be in a wheelchair. He began to find out about the sports that he could play. The Californian recalls, “Shortly after I started playing I met a guy who was building sports wheelchairs and playing wheelchair tennis named Jeff Minnenbraker. He was playing with two bounces on his side of the court. I tried it and it made sense.”

National Capital Wheelchair Tennis Association Promoting recreational and competitive tennis for all. Wheelchair tennis was introduced to Ottawa in 1985 as an initiative of the Chairperson of the Recreation Development Committee of the Canadian Tennis Association with the Ottawa Athletic Club. The local legacy of the product was a successful wheelchair tennis program run by local leaders from both the tennis and disabled community. The National Capital Wheelchair Tennis Association (NCWTA) is a volunteer based body which guides the development of wheelchair tennis in the Ottawa-Carleton region. NCWTA is dedicated to promoting and providing competitive and community based wheelchair tennis activities for persons with a physical disability. Tennis is an excellent tool to utilize in the development of physical and wheelchair mobility skills, personal positive self-imaging and personal growth through exercising independence and expanding beyond perceived limitations. This season, Table Tennis will also be offered through NCTWA.
