Abstract: The aim of this paper is to present the Romanian experiences in wheelchair tennis area, as a sport branch with a big potential for social integration of disabled people. We emphasize some methodological aspects, but also the solutions for the training process, which can contribute to the improvement of specialists’ training level. The effects of the training process are presented on different personality levels (motor, physical, social and psychological). Even at national level, we still need to make some important steps, as there are good premises to extend the number of participants and improve their results in the international competitions.
