Archery

The first Archery competition for persons with a disability was held at the Stoke Mandeville Hospital in 1948. In 2006, 37 countries compete in Archery but the number is still growing. Archery was one of the original Paralympic Sports contested in Rome in 1960.

The sport is open to athletes with a physical disability (including spinal injury, cerebral palsy, amputee and les autres) in three functional classes. It comprises of individual and team events, standing and wheelchair competitions.

The governing body is the IPC with co-ordination from the IPC Archery Technical Committee, which follows the rules of FITA (the international governing body for able-bodied Archery) with a few minor modifications as detailed in the IPC Archery rulebook.
