With The Games of the 32nd Olympiad completed, August 24th-September 5th will see the 16th Summer Paralympic Games take place!
No matter the debate that always occurs, which has the question of "why does there have to be a seperate event?!" - I suspect that none of the 139 Team Para GB athletes will mind too much, with them representing there nation!
Unlike the Discovery deal for the Olympics, Channel 4 has full and exclusive rights of the Para's up until after Paris 2024 and will see more than 300 hours be broadcast across C4 and More4.
Around 4,400 competitors are expected in Tokyo and sees Badminton and Taekwondo (which was another excellent event for GB) replace 7-a-Side Football and Sailing.
Finally, seeing that 70% of Channel 4's team are Disabled, illustrates the desire of inclusivity on screen and it ultimately showing that NO One Is Too Disabled, to live and lead an ordinary life!
May these games, again bring to the fore some powerful and just as talented folk across our land!
