The numbers of sports that are included in Summer Paralympic Games are 22.

• Athletes with physical disabilities compete in the international multi-sport Summer Paralympics, sometimes referred to as the Games of the Paralympiad. This includes athletes who have cerebral palsy, blindness, amputations, or mobility issues. Every four years, the International Paralympic Committee hosts the Paralympic Games. Every event awards medals; first place receives a gold medal, second place receives a silver medal, and third place receives a bronze medal. This custom dates back to the 1904 Olympic Games.

• In 1960, the Italian city of Rome hosted the first-ever formal Paralympics. The 1960 Olympics featured 400 competitors from 23 nations, but all of them were wheelchair athletes.

• Each Paralympic competitor's disability is categorized into one of ten categories, including impaired passive range of motion, impaired muscle power, limb deficiency, leg length disparity, short stature, hypertonia, ataxia, athetosis, vision impairment, and cerebral impairment.

• The sports that are included in Summer Paralympic Games are: Para Archery, Para Athletics, Para Badminton, Blind Football, Boccia, Para Canoe, Para Cycling, Para Equestrian, GoalBall, Para Judo, Para Powerlifting, Para Rowing, Shooting Para Sport, Sitting Volleyball, Para Swimming, Para Table Tennis, Para Taekwondo, Para Triathlon, Wheelchair Basketball, Wheelchair Fencing, Wheelchair Rugby, and Wheelchair Tennis.
