Women’s wheelchair rugby teams from across Great Britain are in Coventry on Saturday for a dedicated Wheelchair Rugby Fives competition at the Alan Higgs Centre.

The 7 November meeting is designed to give players meaningful competitive court time while supporting the continued growth of the women’s game. Great Britain Wheelchair Rugby says the format creates opportunities for athletes to test themselves, build experience and connect with other players from around the country.

Spectators are welcome at the Alan Higgs Centre, Allard Way, Coventry CV3 1HW. On-site parking is available and the venue café is due to remain open through the day.

Fixtures and results

GB Wheelchair Rugby is using Tournify for the competition schedule, timings and results. Supporters should use that live board for the latest order of play rather than relying on an estimated start time.

The event sits within a wider push to increase playing opportunities for women and girls in wheelchair rugby. A separate Women’s and Girls’ Festival is already planned for 9 January 2027, with registration open to newcomers, returning players and those who want to learn more about the sport.

Full event details and the live competition link are on the official GB Wheelchair Rugby announcement.
