Sydney 2000 Paralympic Games


The Sydney 2000 Paralympic Games was held a few weeks after the Olympic Games. I was not a technical official for this competition, so I went to watch a few of the sports. You could buy a day ticket that gave you entry to every event for about $15. Here is long jumper.

 

This is a Powerlifting competition. The competitors do not have use of their legs, so they are strapped to the bench.

 

This is me out at the warm-up track.

 

View of the stadium and the torch.

 

This is a Wheelchair Basketball match between Canada and Germany.
