HISTORY OF THE PARALYMPICS The Paralympic Games originate from 1948 when a sports competition was organised for World War II veterans with a spinal cord injury in Stoke Mandeville, England. Four years later athletes from Holland joined the event and so the international Paralympic movement was born. The first recognised Paralympic Games were held in Rome in 1960 and immediately followed the Olympics. Here, around 400 athletes from 23 countries competed in six different sports, including swimming. Today, the Games are an elite sports event for athletes from six different disability groups competing in 19 sports and the last Games in Sydney in 2000 involved more athletes that the 1998 Commonwealth Games. Swimming has been a part of the Games since its conception. Swimmers compete in events ranging from 50m to 400m. This differs slightly from the Olympic Games where swimmers compete in events up to 800m for women and 1500m for men. This year 580 swimmers from 58 countries have registered for the Games.
