The Helter Skelter tournament grows more and more each year, and this year was the best yet. Everyone had a great time watching the games and listening to the crash of pounding metal. The City of Las Vegas Adaptive Recreation Division has created a year round program fully dedicated to the sport of Quad Rugby. It is our goal to provide three tournaments and two clinics annually in-order to grow the sport on the West Coast, and to provide competition and instructional opportunities for teams, athletes, coaches and fans.
