Great Britain at the 1972 Summer Paralympics : ウィキペディア英語版 | Great Britain at the 1972 Summer Paralympics
Great Britain sent a delegation to compete at the 1972 Summer Paralympics in Heidelberg, West Germany. Teams from the nation are referred to by International Paralympic Committee (IPC) as Great Britain despite athletes from the whole of the United Kingdom, including those from Northern Ireland, being eligible.〔"No place for 'NI', says Olympic Team GB", Belfast Telegraph, 10 March 2011〕 They sent seventy two competitors, forty seven male and twenty five female. The team won fifty-two medals—sixteen gold, fifteen silver and twenty-one bronze—to finish third in the medal table behind West Germany and the United States.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.paralympic.org/Sport/Results/reports.html?type=medalstandings&games=1972PG&sport=all )〕 Philip Craven, the President of the IPC since 2001, competed in athletics, swimming and wheelchair basketball for Great Britain at these Games.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.paralympic.org/Sport/Results/search.html?npc=GBR&gender=all&medal=all&sport=all&games=1972PG )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.paralympiansclub.org.uk/athlete.asp?itemTitle=Justin+Frishberg§ion=70§ionTitle=Search+For+An+Athlete&games=&sport=&medal_gold=&medal_silver=&medal_bronze=&keyword=&itemid=16 )〕 ==Disability classifications== Athletes at the Paralympics in 1972 were all afflicted by spinal cord injuries and required the use of a wheelchair.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.paralympic.org/Paralympic_Games/ )〕 This is in contrast to later Paralympics that include events for participants that fit into any of five different disability categories; amputation, either congenital or sustained through injury or illness; cerebral palsy; wheelchair athletes; visual impairment, including blindness; Les autres, any physical disability that does not fall strictly under one of the other categories, for example dwarfism or multiple sclerosis. Each Paralympic sport then has its own classifications, dependent upon the specific physical demands of competition. Events are given a code, made of numbers and letters, describing the type of event and classification of the athletes competing.
