I do my best to keep these threads informative, since I spend a lot of time following these multi-sports games. It’s a bit disheartening to get the same questions and comments over and over. It honestly makes me feel like I’m wasting my time posting on here… You posted a list of the sports that would be broadcasted, and there are so many that I was under the impression that the list included all sports. Maybe if you started by saying that Powerlifting wouldn't be covered you would get more attention + that's surprising because the sport was broadcast in Rio, and even some World Cup stages have full coverage on the IPC website. Also what's the point of including Taekwondo and only show highlights. Griff88 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheelchair Fencing was broadcast in Rio as well. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Griff88 1,782 Posted August 26, 2021 #107 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Also just a random info about cash bonus for Indonesian medalists: Gold - IDR 5.5 billion (USD 380k) Silver - IDR 2.5 billion (USD 173k) Bronze - IDR 1.5 billion (USD 104k) The National Paralympic Committee will receive 30% of the cash bonus of each athlete, it will be used help to fund the para-sports development and also to send the athlete for his/her next championships.
