Extractions: Although tennis had been played in wheelchairs before, the development of wheelchair tennis really started in 1976 when Brad Parks first hit a tennis ball and realised the potential of this new sport. The mammoth efforts that went into the initial marketing and promoting of the sport, leading to the formation of the IWTF in 1988, are almost immeasurable. As news of wheelchair tennis spread across the nation and gradually the world, Brad started to get more and more invitations overseas to help new countries establish wheelchair tennis programmes. When the IWTF was formed in 1988, there were just eight member nations. Martina Navratilova helping out a clinic in the USA But it wasn't until the IWTF gained a full time officer in 1991, that the resources and structure were in place to allow the worldwide development of wheelchair tennis to really take off. 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. Often, the initial contact from new countries came through Ellen de Lange's attendance at the ITF AGM each year where ITF Member Nations would hear about the work of the IWTF and ask if it would be possible to start up a wheelchair tennis programme in their country.

Extractions: Wheelchair tennis follows the same rules as able-bodied tennis. Except the ball is allowed to bounce twice. The second bounce can be either inside or outside the court boundaries. This is one of the reasons wheelchair tennis has become so popular - people in a chair can easily play against able-bodied friends. The sport really took off in 1976. Meet Britain's number one wheelchair player Jayant Mistry (top) is one of the best players in the world People in wheelchairs had played before. But it was only when disabled American Brad Parks first hit a tennis ball that he realised the potential of this new sport. Brad and his friend Jeff Minnenbraker went to great lengths to set up exhibition matches and get publicity. It's popularity grew and in 1988 eight countries came together to form the International Wheelchair Tennis Federation. The game also grew very quickly in Belgium.
Extractions: Jayant Mistry is Great Britain's number one wheelchair tennis player ranked seventh in the world. Watch my story in video Broadband Modem He's been one of the world's leading players in the sport for over 10 years. Q: How old were you when you discovered wheelchair tennis? A: I started playing wheelchair tennis when I was 19-years-old. However, I had been playing wheelchair basketball since I was 13, so I had plenty of wheelchair skills. Q: Have you been in a wheelchair all your life? A: I was born with Spina Bifida, so I was born disabled. Q: When did you first realise you had a talent for wheelchair tennis? A: After a couple of years of playing the sport and entering competitions, I began to beat people who'd been playing the game a lot longer than me. But then I went to my first international tournament and lost to someone who I never should have lost to, which brings you back down to earth again. Q: What has the sport done for you?
