A winning season
for NorCal Quakes

he squeal of metal against metal,
the smack of rubber against flesh:
Murder was in the air as Kentucky
hosted the national tournament of
wheelchair rugby — dubbed “murderball” — on March 21.
Visitors to Menlo Park’s Riekes Center would have recognized some of the
faces mixing it up with the best of the
best on the Louisville court. The nonprofit center provides workout facilities
and helps fund-raise for the “NorCal
Quakes,” which qualified for Nationals
for the first time in about 10 years. The
team finished the season with 28 wins
and seven losses.

Continued from previous page
“It gives me a little credibility, don’t it?” said Coach Reggie Richner, who came off the
retirement bench to assist the
Quakes. He’d made “a tough
decision” to stop coaching after
seeing the American rugby team
through to victory in the 2000
Paralympics, and stayed out
of the game until a neighbor
coaxed him back into action this
season.
The team took fourth place
in its division at Nationals — a
solid performance that, nonetheless, left some disappointed.
Coach Richner is already fired
up for when the next season
opens in September. “I’m very
proud of the guys. Being among
the best of the best got to us a
little bit, maybe I didn’t prepare
them well enough for that,” he
said. The team, with some players injured and sick, wasn’t at
full strength on the Kentucky
proving grounds. “Not to make
excuses. I’ve got to come back
and redeem myself too. Next
year will be better.”
The United States Quad Rugby
Association’s rules seem simple
enough: Score points by ferrying a ball across the opposition’s
goal line on a regulation-size
hardwood basketball court. All
with some degree of quadriplegia, players are rated from 0.5
(limited use of arms and hands)
to 3.5 (much greater use). Each
coed team fields four members
at a time, and their combined
rating can’t exceed 8.0. The team
with the most points at the end
of four eight-minute quarters
wins.
Those rules translate into the
action that earned the sport its
murderous nickname: Think of
a fast-moving mix of basketball
and football, with a dash of
demolition derby. Think jousting, with manually powered
wheelchairs.
“It’s a full-contact sport. The
chairs are built so you can
smash into them over and over
and over again,” said team cocaptain Grayson Holden.
Although the trip to Nationals
was the first for this particular
some. For somebody to compete
at that high a level within a year
out of rehab — it’s incredible. It
just doesn’t happen like that.”
The team welcomes new members of any ability level, Coach
Richner said. Practice takes
‘Give them two
minutes with another
quad, and they learn
so much more than at
occupational therapy.’
COACH REGGIE RICHNER
group of players, some have
played for years after discovering
the “competitive world inside of
disability,” as Mr. Holden put
it. Recruited by a neighbor after
finishing architecture school, he
started five years ago.
“It’s a time to change your
brain,” he said. “You don’t have
to think about anything beyond
playing the game.”
Others, like Brian Sperle, were
fresh out of rehabilitation. Mr.
Sperle hadn’t been on a plane
since his injury before the trip
to Nationals.
“He was told not to play last
year. They try to keep you out
of that (kind of activity) for at
least six to eight months, but
Brian wasn’t having any of that,”
Coach Richner said. “He worked
out every day. He’s just awe-
ing people realize they can have
opportunities.”
Just don’t expect Coach Richner to go easy.
“The coach is never happy,” he
said, laughing, and then paused
in a way that suggested he was
mentally mapping out strategies
for next season.
While the wheelchairs absorb
most of the beating, hands do
sometimes get caught in wheels,
and heads do, once in a great
while, smack the ground. The
coach suggests finding a courtside seat if murderball sounds
too intense to try.
“It’s the best spectator sport

place two to three times a week.
Maybe the biceps or triceps
muscles no longer work, but
players learn to maximize what
they do have.
“They might see somebody
who has less function than
they do, but doing way more,
and they want to know how.
Give them two minutes with
another quad, and they learn so
much more than at occupational
therapy.”
While it is a no-holds-barred
sport, the heart of quad rugby
lies under the surface, according to the coach. “A lot of these
guys work, they’ve got school
or whatever. The beauty of it is
that it’s not about the sport, but
about getting people back into
mainstream society, and help-

there is. If you want to just sit down and
watch a sport for the fun of it, you can’t beat
wheelchair rugby.”
He would know. When the sport debuted
as a medal event at the 2000 Paralympics,
the U.S. team edged out Australia 32-31 for
the gold in front of a sold-out crowd.
