MATCH is making more tickets available to wheelchair users.
Some disabled users have reported difficulties getting tickets for the games as many have been mistakenly purchased.
MATCH official Imran Patel said on Friday disabled tickets can only be sold over the counter to ensure they land up in the right hands.
“MATCH has been selling tickets over the counter to wheelchair customers when they were available. Wheelchair tickets are not available online at this stage. This is due to the limited inventory and this is to make sure that any remaining inventory is sold to wheelchair users and not purchased by customers who do not truly need them,” he said.
