Comments (1)Harrow wheelchair rugby star Justin Frishberg has earned a place in the Great Britain team for this year's Paralympics.
The 36-year-old will be part of a squad of 12 for the Games which get underway this September in Beijing.
Frishberg currently plays for the London Wheelchair Rugby Club and has taken part in the Paralympics before.
Team captain Andy Barrow said: "Our aim in Beijing is to medal. We came fourth in Athens in 2004 and fourth again at the last world championships in 2006 so to win a medal would be fantastic. Personally I would like to see us reach the final."
