Hitting Bullseye with precision and concentration. Don't miss the tense moment when a single millimetre difference decides victory!

Archery is a sport in which archers shoot arrows at a target from a set distance and compete for points. Hitting the centre of the target earns a highest score (10 points), and points decrease the further from the center the arrow hits. Competitors shoot a set number of arrows, and the total score determines the winner.

It is also popular as a lifelong sport,and by using equipment suited to one's physique and strength,anyone can enjoy it regardless of age or gender.

Run, Jump, Throw – the largest number of the events. Push the limits!

Various events are held, such as running, jumping, and throwing, similar to those in conventional　athletics. In addition, the types and locations of impairments vary, and even within the same impairment, the degree of severity differs. Therefore, athletes are classified into categories so that competitors with similar levels of impairment can compete against each other.

The number of such events amounts to approximately 150. Fierce battles unfold as they push the limits of human endurance.

Speedy chairwork and dynamic play

Badminton uses the same net height and basic rules as standard badminton, but some modifications are made depending on the type and degree of disability. The rackets and shuttlecocks used are the same as standard equipment. Players compete in two categories: wheelchair and standing,

which are further divided into six classes based on the degree of disability.

Incredible concentration, skill, and strategy. Don't miss this fierce clash.

Boccia is a sport designed for athletes with disabilities, in which participants compete to see how close they can get six red and six blue balls to a white ball called the jack (target ball).

Even if a person has difficulty throwing the balls due to their disability, they can still participate by using a ramp (a ramp device) and communicating their intentions to the ramp operator.

Who’s the fastest?! Watch the riders push their limits in a tough time races!

This event takes place on a specially designed cycling track with steep banking, where races are contested down to the thousandth of a second. Athletes are divided into two classes based on the type of impairment, and they use bicycles tailored to their specific needs.

Feel the excitement of speed and tactics.
Let's enjoy to watch the wide variety of　bicycles as well!

This event takes place on an outdoor course, with athletes categorised into four classes based on their type of disability, each using bicycles tailored to their specific needs. In the road race, all riders start simultaneously and compete for position in the order they cross the finish line. In the time trial, riders start individually at staggered intervals, covering a set distance and competing for the fastest time.

Relying solely on voice and sound,
they challenge their limits.The heat of powerful play ignites the field.

It’s a five-a-side sport inspired by futsal, where players sharpen their senses and rely on the sound of the ball, the voices of the goalkeeper, coach, and guide behind the goal to gather information and play.

Often called “invisible football,” all players except the goalkeeper wear eye masks and use a ball that makes a rattling sound.

A competitive team sport also known as a "martial art in silence"

Goalball is a ball game designed for people with visual impairments. Players roll a ball containing bells and throw it at each other, aiming to score points while defending their own goal.
Defensive players lie down to block balls that can travel up to 50 kilometres per hour, so the sport is also known as a "martial art in silence."

Extreme combat driven by precision and instinct

Athletes have visual impairments, but the competition area and basic rules remain the same as in judo. Matches are divided not only by weight category but also by visual acuity and field of vision. For these athletes, the tsurite (grip hand) is considered the most crucial element, as it reveals the opponent’s shoulder height. Competitors rely on every sense beyond sight—feeling the grip position, sensing breathing patterns—to fight with absolute precision.

A 3-second drama of tension, explosions, and joy

This is a competition for athletes with lower limb disabilities and those of short stature, and is held under the same rules as a regular bench press.
Unlike regular bench presses, the bench press stand has a special structure that allows the entire body to rest on it from head to toe, and athletes compete without their feet touching the ground.

Each athlete is given three attempts, and the ranking is determined by the　weight of the barbell they lift.

The heartbeat gets in the way A sport that pushes “stillness” to its limits

Competitors use firearms known as “rifles” or “pistols” to fire a specified number of rounds within a time limit, competing for the highest total score. Athletes with physical disabilities participate, and some use equipment such as wheelchairs or support stands tailored to their specific disability.

This sport demands intense concentration and is sometimes called the “ultimate mental sport.”

High-speed volleyball while sitting！
Don't miss the amazing technique performed while sitting!

Sitting volleyball is a six-player volleyball game played by athletes with disabilities in the lower limbs and other areas, who play while sitting down.
Players are divided into two classes, and among the six players on the court, only one player is from the class with a milder disability, while the other five are from the class with a more severe disability. The rules are almost the same as those of standard six-player volleyball, but there are also rules unique to sitting volleyball, such as allowing a serve to be blockeddirectly.

A Story of Challenge and Inspiration in the Splash

Athletes are classified according to the type and degree of their impairment, and competitions are held within each class. The competition rules are based on the regulations of World Aquatics, with exceptions provided for movements that cannot be performed due to impairments. The use of prosthetic limbs or assistive devices is not permitted, except for the use of ocular prostheses　by athletes who are completely blind.
For athletes with visual impairments, tapping by a tapper can be allowed to　prevent collisions with the wall.

Don't miss the moment when struggle turns into brilliance
— witness the art of peak performance!

Table tennis is a competitive sport where players face each other across a rectangular table, rallying a ball with rackets to score points. The rackets and balls used are the same as those in standard table tennis.
There are three categories: wheelchair users, standing players, and individuals with intellectual disabilities.

To ensure fair competition, players are　classified into different classes based on the type and degree of their disabilities.

A martial art that highlights the brilliant footwork

Para Taekwondo is a martial art in which competitors use impressive kicking techniques to score points against each other.
Unlike standard taekwondo rules, attacks to the head are prohibited, and only kicks are considered valid techniques.

The points awarded vary depending on the type of kick: a simple kick earns 2 points, a kick with a turning (180-degree) or spinning(360-degree) earns 4 points.

Skill x Speed x Strategy! Feel the passion and power on Every wheelchair move.

Wheelchair basketball is basketball played by players with impairment in lower limbs maneuvering wheelchairs skillfully. The playing conditions including the size of a court and the height of a hoop is the same as running basketball, although some of the rules are designed in accordance with the characteristic of playing in wheelchairs, e.g.
“Traveling“ is 3 consecutive pushing　the wheels.

The Art of the Ultimate Upper-Body Battle

In wheelchair fencing, athletes’ wheelchairs are fixed to a device called a “frame,” and the distance between opponents is adjusted according to the length of their arms. The competition is conducted using only the upper body.
There are specific rules unique to this sport, such as “the athlete must not lift their hips from the seat during the　bout” and “the feet must remain on　the footrest at all times.”
Wheelchair fencing consists of three　disciplines — foil, épée, and sabre — which differ in the type of weapon used and the valid target area.

Don’t miss the passion behind every tackle!

Wheelchair rugby is a sport in which players move the ball without kicking, and points are scored when the two wheels of the ball-carrying player's sport wheelchair cross the try line.
Each player is assigned a classification score based on the degree of their disability, and teams must be formed so that the total classification points of the four players on the court do not　exceed a set limit.

Watch the stunning chair work!

This is a competitive sport where players in wheelchairs hit the ball back and forth with a racket. It is played by athletes with lower limb disabilities, as well as those who have both lower limb disabilities and upper limb impairments such as paralysis. The court, net height, and equipment used are the same as in regular tennis, but while regular tennis　requires returning the ball within one　bounce, wheelchair tennis allows the　ball to be returned within two bounces.
