British Prime Minister and London Mayor Boris Johnson faced each other on the tennis court in Trafalgar Square to raise awareness of next year’s Paralympics Games.

The two British politicians played with some wheelchair tennis players in front of a couple of hundred spectators.

The Prime Minister played a bit of tennis during his university years.

The International Paralympic Committee president Sir Philip Craven said, “Something special is going to happen at the London 2012 Paralympics Games. We’re going to put on a show that will captivate billion, inspire millions and show the world that anything is possible.”

Johnson tweeted after the match, “Cracking game of tennis with the PM”
