Breaking Barriers: Understanding and Celebrating Paralympic Sports through Student Events”.

Despite initial hesitation, all students left the event with a smile on their face, shared Lowery. He emphasized that events like these are crucial for promoting the understanding that para-athletes are just as skilled and competitive as traditional athletes.

Moreover, Lowery highlighted the misconception that adaptive and Paralympic sports are somehow inferior to mainstream sports. He hopes that events like the one held on Friday helped students realize that these sports are just as challenging and engaging as any other sport. The most important takeaway, according to Lowery, is that adaptive sports are still sports at the end of the day.

For those interested in witnessing the excitement, the Paralympic Games will be taking place in Paris from August 28 to September 8.
