Leicester Tigers' Team GB representatives have finished in fourth place in the Wheelchair Rugby event at the Paralympics. 

Gavin Walker captained the side and was joined in the squad by Leicester Tigers compatriots Nick CumminsKieran FlynnJamie Stead and Tyler Walker, who joined the club in the summer.

Team GB cruised through the pool stages of the competition, but just missed out on the gold medal game after losing to the USA. 

A rematch against Australia awaited in the bronze medal contest and again, Team GB couldn't quite get the result, a disappointing finish for the side after a promising start.
