The Paralympics—Strength and Spirit
Every two years, millions of people from around the world turn on their TVs to watch the Summer or Winter Olympic Games. However, did you know that a few weeks later, the same city hosts another major sports event—the Paralympic Games?
The Paralympics is an international sports event for athletes with physical disabilities. The original idea came from a doctor named Ludwig Guttmann in England shortly after World War II. Guttmann was interested in improving the lives of soldiers dependent on wheelchairs. He therefore decided to arrange a sports competition between a small group of patients on the same day as the opening of the 1948 Olympic Games. This small event slowly grew, and in 1960 it became known as the first Paralympic Games. It was decided that from then on the Paralympics would be held in the same year and country as the Olympic Games. Nowadays, the Paralympic Games take place in the same cities as the Olympics and use the same venues a short time later.
At the beginning, the Paralympics were open only to people in wheelchairs. However, in 1976, athletes with visual and other physical disabilities were included. Generally, athletes at the Paralympics only compete against others with the same kind of disability.
Like the Olympics, the Paralympics have also produced many great heroes and champions, including Natalia Partyka, who was born without a right hand. She has competed in table tennis in the Olympics, and also in the Paralympics, where she has won gold medals. Some Paralympians are blind and need a guide to help them in racing events. For example, Chinese Paralympian Liu Cuiqing has won three gold medals with her guide Xu Donglin. She won gold in the 400 metres and 4×100-metre relay in 2016, and the 400 metres again in 2021.
The Paralympics’ goal has always been to help those with disabilities to improve their physical health and bring them joy and purpose. The motto for the Olympic movement is "Faster, Higher, Stronger—Together". The Paralympic Games follow this motto, showing the amazing strength and spirit of athletes with physical disabilities.
