new disabled sports[edit]

para Bobsleigh and Skeleton[edit]

In May 2014 the IBSF was officially granted the status of IPC Recognised International Federation for Para Bobsleigh and Para Skeleton with according rights and privileges. This designation indicated that Para Bobsleigh and Para Skeleton were recognized as candidate sports for inclusion in the Paralympic Winter Games in Beijing in 2022. The first official Para World Cup competitions were held during the 2014/2015 season in Park City, Igls and St. Moritz. During the 2015/2016 season Para World Cups were held in Park City, Calgary, Igls and St. Moritz, and in March 2016 the first ever Para Bobsleigh and Para Skeleton World Championship took place at the track in Park City, USA. 19 athletes from 9 nations took part in this inaugural event. The overall success of the Para World Championships was an important milestone for IBSF. In September 2016, the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) provisionally accepted the sport of Para Bobsleigh (seated) for inclusion in their winter sports programme for the 2022 Paralympic Winter Games in Beijing.

Paralympics[edit]

I would like to know why Golf is not included as a category for these Olympics. I have a nephew that is an amputee and is an avid golfer in many tournaments. His dream and passion for golf along with a massive amount of disabled golfers should be able to have a category. 2600:387:C:7212:0:0:0:C (talk) 14:34, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
