What sports events are available for disabled athletes?
Answered By Editor
Sports events are not limited to the strong
and vigorous; people with disabilities can
also participate in them. There are different
types of sports events suited for specific
disabilities, such as:
* Sports for the deaf. Common examples are
basketball, badminton, athletics, and bowling.
* "Paralympic" sports. Archery, cycling,
equestrian, swimming, and judo are some
sports under this category. Wheelchair
basketball, rugby and tennis are also available.
* Sports for the blind. These days,
cricket and golf can be played by blind
individuals. These games are modified for
blind players to participate.
