Great Britain competed at the 1998 Winter Paralympics held in Nagano, Japan. The team did not win any medals during these games. In order to be eligible to take part in the Games athletes had to have a disability that fell into one of the six Paralympics disability categories. ==Disability classification== Every participant at the Paralympics has their disability grouped into one of five disability categories; amputation, the condition may be congenital or sustained through injury or illness; cerebral palsy; wheelchair athletes, there is often overlap between this and other categories; 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. Events with "B" in the code are for athletes with visual impairment, codes LW1 to LW9 are for athletes who stand to compete and LW10 to LW12 are for athletes who compete sitting down. Each different number refers to a different severity of impairement and defines the equipment that competitors may use; e.g. LW4 is for athletes with a single leg amputation below the knee who compete using two skis and two poles.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Winter Sport Classification )〕
