>
> The 12th Paralympic Games will be held from 17 to 28 September, 2004 in
> Athens and will involve more than 4000 athletes representing 146  
> countries.
> At these games, Australia will be attempting to defend its title as the
> world's greatest Paralympic nation ­ a title it received after  
> finishing
> number one on the medal tally at the Sydney Paralympic Games. The  
> Paralympic
> Games is the second largest world gathering of athletes, after the  
> Olympic
> Games. The Australian Paralympic Team will compete in 12 of the  
> possible 19
> sports, including athletics, swimming, cycling, equestrian, judo,  
> wheelchair
> basketball (men and women), archery, powerlifting, sailing, rugby,  
> shooting
> and tennis.

> Our team will consist of approximately 160 athletes and 90 staff  
> including
> medicos, coaches and administrators. The Australian Paralympic  
> Committee
> (APC), a registered charity, is responsible for financing our team for
> Athens. (It will cost almost $10,000 per person.) To do this we will  
> need to

> Without sufficient funds, the team size to Athens will be reduced.
