5 players joined up and the coach who was running the session agreed to help the club out for 3 months to give them a guiding hand.

2 years later the coach, Luke White, is still with them on a part-time basis and they also now have a new coach, Phil Porter, who is developing the team.

The days of wearing printed t-shirts for kit changed yesterday as the Dorset Destroyers received their first kit, paid for by the people of Dorset and the surrounding areas.  The club had been running a summer fundraiser to help them get into the league, to buy the kit and to give more disabled people the chance to play competitive sport.

They now start in the league on the weekend of December 10th.  In total the club has raised £7,000 so far and there is still money to come in. To run a club of this size takes between £10,000 and £15,000 a year, so it’s nonstop but at the end of the day it really does make a difference to so many people across Dorset.

Sunday July 31st was a great day for The Dorset Destroyers Wheelchair Rugby Club.  We had been invited to an event by Dorset Orthopaedic in Ringwood as part of their Summer Fair. The event was opened by non other than Rugby Legend Jonny Wilkinson who popped down to watch the demonstration match and was then persuaded to play a game.

“It was great to have Jonny playing and experiencing what it was all like at grassroots level” said Sue Coombs, Club Secretary. “It’s great exposure for The Dorset Destroyers and for the sport, and with the Paralympics coming soon it will give us even more exposure. There were many stunned faces when Jonny got into the wheelchair and started playing, but he was such a gentleman and really enjoyed himself”

The future is looking bright for The Dorset Destroyers and Nick Coombs, Chairman, is busy organising more disability sports at Rossmore Leisure Centre for the very near future, starting with Wheelchair Badminton and Wheelchair Indoor Tennis on Friday Nights from August 12^th and plans to do lots more, bringing in coaches and clubs to the Centre with the idea to make it into a centre of disability sporting excellence.
