There are six Wheelchair Tennis medal events taking place at the London 2012 Paralympics: Men's and women's singles, Quad singles, men's and women's doubles, and Quad doubles. In the Quad events, male and female athletes will compete together.
Wheelchair Tennis at the Paralympics follows traditional Tennis rules, with one exception; ball is allowed to bounce twice, and only the first bounce must be within the court's boundaries.

All matches are played over the best of three sets.

Classification:
Quad players will have an impairment that affects three or more limbs
