This work focuses on sport activities of physically handicapped part of population. The research part is focused on qualitative research, which was done by narrative interview with 6 respondents. The aim was to find the key factors that influenced lives of physically disabled people in the connection with sport. The research is focused on the difference of attitude those who are disabled since childhood and those who became disabled in adulthood. I tried to select those respondents who differ a lot. The condition was that those had to be on a wheelchair, had different experience with sport, lived in different areas, were various age and sex, had a family or lived single. I made analyze of narrative interview and sports which were those respondents interested in, or sports they would like to take up in the future. Five categories were made during this analysis, which I called: Attitude to sport, Why to sport, Negatives, Beginnings of sport, Family. It pointed the problems in professional sport, classification and also sponsorship as well as financing these sport activities.
