Event list and athlete quotas: https://www.paralympic.org/sites/default/files/2023-07/MiCo26_Medal events and athlete quotas_2.pdf

 

Curling gets a mixed doubles event, ice sledge hockey now has dedicated quotas from female athletes, and biathlon switches from middle distance to sprint pursuit. Alpine Combined will be held as part of alpine skiing, even though it has been axed from the Winter Olympics.

Just bumping this thread up for future discussions - although Friday 6th is the official opening ceremony, we get a Day -2, -1 & 0 with 4 sessions of wheelchair curling, so only about 10 days before we start.

Think this is going to be a mess unfortunately due to the Russia and Belarusian return and IPC losing the plot a bit. 
 

Nervous also about  performance. Don’t want to go medaless again,

After our first ever Olympic medal, it's time for our first Paralympic medal.  The chances are good, but I'm traumatized by the Chinese after 2022. 

 

I'm also concerned about the atmosphere of these games.

Not a bad team but I’m not sure they are many medals there.
