 Paralympics games 2020-Disability no barrier for our paralympic greats in a paralympics like no other. 


When the 2020 olympics games was postponed to the flowing year many hoped that the coivd-19 crisis would be over unfortunately, they couldn’t of been more wrong with the delta strain now ripping through the world our paralympians are shining a light of hope to us all, by facing yet another life changing challenge. 


The New Zealand paralympic team has set a target of 22 medals over the course of 22 different sports located in 21 different venues across the tokyo rejoin. At the start of the last day of the paralympic games our paralympic team has a total of 12 medals (6 gold 3 silver 3 bronze) while at the top of the medal table china has 96 gold's 60 silver and 51 bronze reaching an incredible total 207 medals over 11 days. New Zealand is currently sitting 21st on the medal table. 


Even before coivd this year's paralympic games were labeled ‘’a games like no other’’ because of how much money was going into specialist equipment to make the paralympics fairer for all competitors unlike in the first official paralympic games in 1964 where the olympians were treated very differently from the paralympics who were barely acknowledged at all ‘’ the only disability allowed back then was a wheelchair’’ says an unnamed paralympian that competed in the 1964 paralympic games. 


Our paralympians have truly made us proud, showing up the world's best with the New Zealand flag draped around their backs.    


Hi welcome to my blog! today still continuing with my paralympic slide we had to write an article on the paralympics pretending we worked for stuff (a online newspaper basicly) we had to include medal target a little history and a big start. The hardest part of this task was trying to make a title that draws in people So I hope you enjoy this post.
