In preparation for the Paralympics less than a year away, the Australian Team visited China for some much needed match practice. Good relations with the Chinese Team were developed over the tour, with China being invited to the Southern Cross Games to be held in Sydney in October. The Chinese looked after us very well and their hospitality was appreciated greatly. |

Teams were quite evenly matched which led to some very close games. |
