This is an annual wheelchair rugby tournament held by Police UK Disability Sport (PUKDS) held at Worcester University in association with West Mercia Police. The PUKDS board of directors are all armed forces veterans and previously competed in the Invictus Games and invites teams of serving and retired armed forces personnel to participate in a four team tournament each year to celebrate Armed Forces Day. This event features a police team, a local community club and two armed forces teams, the majority of which have competed in the Invictus Games. There are six matches throughout the day which includes the finals. This is the second of this annual event which started with an exhibition match in 2025 and has grown to a full tournament for the second year. This event will feature up to 24 players from the armed forces community and the event is free to attend for all armed forces families to come and support the event, which takes place alongside the National Police Basketball Championships each year. The event promotes fully inclusive adaptive sports for the armed forces and police communities, as such PUKDS are a signatory of the Armed Forces Covenant and open up all of our events to the armed forces to participate in.
