Apparently it's going on right now. I haven't kept up with the Olympics and Paralympics with this time around, but the last time, during the Tokyo games, watched a lot of the Paralympics live, in particular, the Wheelchair Rugby. It was COVID, and we were all stuck at home, I guess. Also watched a lot of Paralympics Table Tennis, and learned a lot about how it works (the classes, etc.). Something I wonder about - it doesn't seem that they've a class for the sight impaired. I know the equipment exists (check out the Nittaku web page) but I've never watched a game.

Turns out there's a Paralympics YouTube Channel:

https://www.youtube.com/@paralympics/videos

and I see a whole bunch of videos on there already. Time to check up on the Wheelchair Rugby - wonder who won this time.

Wheelchair events, live. Quarter-finals match between a Chinese and a German player at the moment. Looks like they can chole like the best of them..

I don't know. I can still view them here (Malaysia) even though the live streaming is over. They're being posted by what I assume is the official Paralympics channel - have you tried clicking on the channel link on my first post? Can you view any of the videos on that channel?
