The nine wheelchair tennis tour events range from ITF Futures Series tournaments right up to the Wimbledon Grand Slam and will see all the world's top players, as well as home-grown talent, taking part in top quality competition.

"Following on from the success of the London 2012 Paralympics the Tennis Foundation is very excited to be bringing world class wheelchair tennis back to Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park from 2014 and the NEC Wheelchair Tennis Masters will be a fitting finale to what will be another landmark year for wheelchair tennis in Great Britain," said Geoff Newton, executive director of the Tennis Foundation.

Six of the tournaments will have ITF Super Series status while three will come under the Futures Series umbrella and these include the Sheffield Wheelchair Tennis Tournament in March, June's Sunderland Open and the Cardiff Wheelchair Tennis Tournament in October.

The end-of-season NEC Masters, which is due to take place from November 5 to 11 in Mission Viejo, California this year, will be one of three tournaments organised by the Tennis Foundation, and it is scheduled to be held at the Lee Valley Hockey and Tennis Centre in the north of the Olympic Park.

The other two will take place in Nottingham, and includes the British Open in July before the ITF 1 Series Nottingham Indoors, which is scheduled to take place in November.

This year's Nottingham Indoors is the next tournament up on the ITF 1 Series tour, and runs from October 23 to 27, where British number one Gordon Reid will be looking to continue his recent impressive run of form which saw him claim his first singles title on the tour at last weekend's Open de la Baie de Somme in Rue, France.

Japan's Shingo Kunieda and Stephane Houdet of France will be out to defend their Wimbledon title next year
