“As the headline sponsor of the Wheelchair Rugby, it has been incredible to watch the team grow over the past 12 months, and we have enjoyed keeping up with both new and old members of the squad. As our partnership grows stronger, we are hoping to support more people to join this incredibly inclusive and inspiring team.

“Dragons RFC have a promising season ahead of them, with their upcoming fixtures certainly being highly anticipated by the local community. We are also thrilled to have opened a new renewed wheelchair-friendly area for spectators at Rodney Parade.”

Michael Weedal, from Dragons Wheelchair team, said: “After our first meeting with HH Law we realised this was more than just sponsor and club. We realised our family had grown and a partnership was formed that was a lasting one.

“During the last two years we have had different visits from HH Law, they have tried out the sport and the relationship has been deepened and cemented.

“HH Law have provided all of our on-field vests and off field kit so we look like a real team. With the Dragons RFC and HH Law logo we know that when we wear the kit and play our sport we represent all of our partners and want to do them proud.

“We have already seen the benefits of having HH Law as our sponsor and it was great to see Dragons Rugby and HH Law providing a space for disabled people not only to play rugby but also to go and watch it at Rodney Parade.

“We want to thank HH Law for their sponsorship, Dragons RFC for their support. We want to thank Torfaen Leisure Trust for their support and for looking after us so well. We also want to thank WRU and Chris Garrett for starting it all off.

“We have seen this sport grow and develop. We hope to continue to develop and grow as a club making sure we provide a chair for all who wish to play this great sport with us as Dragons Wheelchair Rugby club, sponsored by HH Law and in partnership with Dragons RFC.”

The HH Law staff really care about our WR team and have joined them at training sessions on numerous occasions, which is so appreciated and valued by our members, who enjoy showing them how to play this fast and physical high-octane game...
