Paralympics Paralympics The Underlying Principles The origin of the word "Paralympics" The History of the Paralympics The original Paralympics date back to Hippocrates (460-377BC), the famous ancient Greek doctor, who used sporting activities as a means of medical treatment. After World War II, a giant stride was made in the development of Paralympics when the Stoke Mandeville Hospital in UK introduced sports as a significant part of the total rehabilitation of persons with a disability. Dr. Ludwig Guttmann of the Stoke Mandeville Hospital founded the Stoke Mandeville Games for people with spinal disability in 1948, which was held every year in the UK. In 1952, the games expanded into Germany, Sweden and Norway, which ultimately led to the establishment of the International Stoke Mandeville Games Committee (ISMGF). S

You are: Home Our bid News Our city ... Milestones A welcome return London 2012 would welcome the Paralympic Games to the UK in the spirit they were first conceived in the aftermath of World War II. The Ludwig Guttmann Stadium, named after the so-called Father of Disabled Sport, could be used as a training facility before the main action of the Games proper. In its 12 days of action, the Paralympics would represent the values and vision of Sir Ludwig: overcoming adversity against the odds and demonstrating more than ever the benefits of sport for everyone. At the 2000 Games in Sydney, 132 countries took part in the Paralympics and a record 1.2 million people watched. The British team, led by quadruple Sydney gold medallist Tanni Grey-Thompson, returned home with a record haul of 131 medals. In 2012, the Paralympic athletes would compete in the same venues as the Olympians in the Olympic Park . Its compact, self-contained and well-connected nature would be a massive plus for both competitors and the fans expected to flock to the events.

You are: Home Our country The Paralympics News ... The birth of the Paralympics The UK is to the Paralympic Movement what Greece is to the Olympics. It is the country where the Games were born. In Sydney in 2000, 132 countries took part in the Paralympics and a record 1.2 million people watched. That first International Wheelchair Games involved 200 athletes, but quickly grew. In 1952, competitors from Holland also took part. And by 1960, in Rome, 400 athletes from 23 countries competed. Staged a few weeks after the Olympics Games of the XXVll Olympiad, Rome was the first official Parallel Olympics or Paralympics. Since then they have been staged in the same city as the Olympics five times: Tokyo (1964), Seoul (1988), Barcelona (1992), Atlanta (1996) and Sydney. Some of the sports played developed from existing disciplines such as archery, fencing or basketball. Others, such as goalball for visually impaired athletes, are entirely new. But perhaps the biggest change has been the increase in size. In 2000 26 countries which did not compete in Atlanta in 1996 sent athletes to Sydney. And the Australian team, comprising more than 400 athletes and officials, was the biggest ever.

Sailors with Special Needs Calendar Store Membership For webcast coverage of the Paralympic Games Meet The Team Members Updates from Sydney How To Build Your Own Team The 2000 Paralympic Games were held Oct. 18-29 in Sydney, Australia. The Games followed the Olympic Games and use many of the same venues. More than 5,000 athletes from 124 countries competed and 1,500 media representatives were expected to attend. The United States had approximately 400 delegates in Sydney. The Sydney Games had the largest participation in Paralympic history. (Atlanta hosted more than 4,000 athletes from 118 countries.) Thank you to the US Disabled Sailing Team Sponsors and Suppliers Overview The Paralympics are a multi-sport, multi-disability competition of elite, world-class, disabled athletes, similar in scope to the Olympic Games. The Paralympic Games are held approximately two weeks after the Olympic Games in the same host city/country. The difference between the Olympic Games and the Paralympic Games is that the Paralympics provide an elite competition opportunity to athletes with a functional disability which precludes their involvement in open competition of the Olympic Games. Paralympic athletes go through rigorous training year-round to prepare for their respective events. They are the best of the best; who through determination and hard work, earn the honor of representing the United States on the competitive playing field.

The eleventh summer Paralympic Games closed with a ceremony that was, as promised, informal, irreverent and one big party. The infamous kangaroos on bicycles that first appeared at the closing ceremony of the Atlanta Olympic Games made an appearance, as did numerous references to the Olympic Games, including a posturing American track and field athlete. The president of the IPC, Dr. Robert Steadward, declared the Games to be the best ever, a remark that was warmly endorsed by the capacity crowd at Stadium Australia which was later treated to a musical extravaganza. More people have come to see Paralympic athletes in action in Sydney than at any previous Paralympic Games. Fittlingly, Australia won more medals than ever before, and topped the medal count. The Games have seen an extraordinary number of world and paralympic records set over the eleven days of competition. They have also marked a new and binding relationship between the Olympic and Paralympic movements, as well as the spectre of performance-enhancing drug-use by Paralympic athletes.

Radio National's The Sports Factor with Amanda Smith The Paralympics Summary: The Paralympic Games are about to get underway in Sydney, embracing 18 ports and athletes from 125 countries. RONNIE HOFFMAN details their beginnings, just after the Second World War, at the Stoke Mandeville Hospital in England. In 1960, the Stoke Mandeville Games became the Paralympic Games. President of the International Paralympic Committee, ROBERT STEADWARD, discusses how the focus has shifted over the past 40 years, from rehabilitation to sporting excellence. Shot putter HAMISH MacDONALD, along with TRACY LAWRENCE from the Australian Paralympic Committee and PETER DOWNS from the Disability Education Unit of the Australian Sports Commission, examine the role of the Paralympics in shifting public perceptions about people with disabilites. And tennis champ DANIELA DI TORO talks about her relationship with her wheelchair. Details or Transcript: THEME Amanda Smith: Just when you thought it was safe to be grumpy and cynical again, now the Olympics are over, here come the Paralympics. And the Paralympics are a pretty big deal these days; from next Wednesday, when the Games open, Sydney will host 4,000 athletes from 125 countries. And later on The Sports Factor, I’ll be speaking with a couple of Australian Paralympic hopefuls, as well as Robert Steadward, who’s the President of the International Paralympic Committee.

Paralympics Die ersten offiziellen Paralympischen Spiele fanden 1960 in Rom statt. Als Spiele "parallel" zu Olympia (die Terminologie Paralympics hat nichts mit Paraplegie zu tun, wie irrtümlicherweise häufig angenommen wird) haben sich seither zum grössten Sportanlass für Athletinnen und Athleten mit einer Körper- oder Sinnesbehinderung entwickelt. Als Wegbereiter gelten die "Stoke Mandville Wheelchair Games", die vom Arzt Ludwig Guttmann organisiert im Jahre 1952 den olympischen Spielen in London angegliedert wurden und verletzten Kriegsveteranen offen standen.

History Athens 2004 Introduced as an exhibition sport in the 1988 Paralympic Games in Seoul, wheelchair tennis became a full medal sport at the Paralympics in Barcelona in 1992. It proved to be a thrilling event with 32 players representing 14 countries participating in the men's event and 16 players from 6 countries in the women's. The profile of wheelchair tennis grew to be one of the most exciting sports during the 1996 Games in Atlanta. Seventy two athletes representing twenty four nations took part in what was one of the best attended events during the Games. A sell-out crowd watched the Dutchman Ricky Molier take home the gold medal while female compatriot Maaike Smit secured the gold for the women. The Sydney 2000 Paralympic Games tennis event was an amazing development in the sport with record crowds turning out daily to watch the competition. The home crowd was not disappointed when Aussie David Hall won the gold medal defeating Stephen Welch of the USA. The Dutch women secured their dominance of the sport with Esther Vergeer winning the gold, Sharon Walraven the silver and with Maaike Smit adding a bronze medal to her Atlanta gold.
