Summer Paralympic Games Paris 2024


Recommended Posts

Nobody can take the paralympics seriously now. the new re-division of categories is completely disgusting and unfair.

 

This is the reason I do not have interest for this edition, if our TV did not cover this final I wouldn´t have seen a minute of it until now at all

So to let you know judges have discused it 2,5 hours, she started with the same pillow everywhere, also in WC. Nobody protested. With smaller one she often fainted falling down.

Not all disability is visible. An American swimmer had to unpack her entire disability and put with up with insults online after her disability was questioned this earlier week. Her comments on the matter were heartbreaking becuase she should have been celebrating a medal, but instead she had to defend the act of simply competing :(

As far as I know, there haven't been any significant chnages to the classifications for the last few editions. I'm not really sure what you mean by this?
