NSWIS athlete Ryley Batt has been selected on the Australian wheelchair rugby team heading to the 2014 IWRF World Championships in Denmark.

Batt is one of seven members returning to the court following a triumphant gold medal victory at the 2012 London Paralympic Games.

The Steelers have never won a world championship gold medal, however with a strong mix of experience and youth the 2014 world championships may prove to be their best chance yet.

Australia has been pooled with Great Britain, Canada, Denmark, Finland and Belgium, with the action taking place from 4-10 August 2014.
