Can a person in a wheelchair play Wii tennis?

A family member is in a wheelchair and has no use of her left hand/arm. Right hand/arm is fine. She was a good (real) tennis player, but has no experience with video games.

Can she handle the Wii tennis game?


Sure you dont even really have to swing your arm. You can just move your wrist to control it.

    • Parks Hopes Hall of Fame Makes More Aware of Wheelchair Tennis.

    Brad Parks, the founder of wheelchair tennis and one of its biggest promoters, will be inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame this upcoming July. After being paralyzed during a freestyle skiing accident, Parks developed the sport back in 1980. Since then, wheelchair tennis has grown worldwide and is played at the Olympics, at all four Grand Slams and has its own pro tour with players competing for 1.5 million dollars in prize money.

    I had the chance to speak with Parks yesterday about his induction and his thoughts on the game.

    ATN: What was your reaction when you heard the news you were being inducted into the Hall of Fame?

    BP: I couldn’t believe it. Five years ago I was in the running but didn’t get it so I kind of assumed I wouldn’t get it. I was driving in the middle of Utah so when I got the call I was shocked but I didn’t have the chance right there to yell or call a few friends (laughs). But it’s great for wheelchair tennis as it will now be a part of the history of the game and I hope a lot more wheelchair tennis players will be recognized as well in the future.
