USA gets the Paralympic quota. Canada, Brazil and Colombia will have another chance at the 2024 Qualification Tournament (Canada is the favourite).

 

Nice to see Brazil winning its first ever Parapan American Games medal after losing many times to Colombia.

I swear the adaptive sports have been a hot bed from proposals at multi-sports games. There was one in table tennis earlier this week too.

WR #6 Canada qualify for the Paralympics. WR #3 Brazil, and WR #5 United States both miss out, as this was the final qualification opportunity for the Pan Americas.

Surprising since :USA is the current Paralympics silver medalist. Blame it on IBSA for reducing team quotas from 10 to 8 to allow for more categories in Judo.

Actually, IPC uniformly capped all team sports at 8 teams for Paris 2024. The IPC also pushed for more events that cater to athletes with more severe impairment.

4th Para Pan Ams title in a row for Brazil! As Brazil has already qualified for the Paralympics through an earlier event, the quota went to United States as the next highest ranked team.
