It was more than 20 years ago when Fassolette and Salvan created the practice by adapting the rules of XIII to that of Armchair, emphasizing a sport accessible to all!
Created exactly in 2012 to show the immense contribution of Robert Fassolette (current Manger du XIII de France Para) and the Englishman Malcolm Kielty to the practice of XIII Fauteuil, the Fassolette-Kielty Trophy is awarded during the autumn tours between France and England. A few years later, Malcolm Kielty, whose father Stan gave exceptional service to the Halifax club from 1946 to 1958, took over at Yorkshire. In 2008, England joined France for the first XIII Wheelchair World Cup in Australia (won by the English).
This Saturday, the two nations will meet at the Palais des Sports in Marseille for a meeting broadcast live for those who cannot travel on NA TV.
