Tennis uses one type of chair, basketball or rugby another. My VAMC in Salisbury, NC is ordering one for me to play softball. Invacare is one of the 2 providers that I could choose from. <br /><br />Here's their website - <a target="_blank" href="http://www.invacare.co.nz/index.cfm/1,231,0,33,html/Sports-amp-Recreation">http://www.invacare.co.nz/index.cfm/1,231,0,33,html/Sports-amp-Recreation</a><br /><br />Being as active as possible is the best thing for the body and the mind.
