Saudi Arabia at the Paralympics : ウィキペディア英語版 | Saudi Arabia at the Paralympics
Saudi Arabia made its Paralympic Games début at the 1996 Summer Paralympics in Atlanta, with two competitors in powerlifting. The country has participated in every subsequent edition of the Summer Paralympics, but has never entered the Winter Paralympics. All Saudis have competed in athletics or powerlifting.〔(Saudi Arabia at the Paralympics ), International Paralympic Committee〕 Saudi Arabia has won a total of two medals, both through Osamah Alshanqiti in 2008. Alshanqiti was the Kingdom's first Paralympic champion when he set a world record of 15.37m in the triple jump, F12 category. His other medal was a silver in the long jump, with a result of 7.06m, behind South Africa's Hilton Langenhoven (7.31m).〔(Saudi Arabia at the Paralympics ), International Paralympic Committee〕 Saudi Arabia has only ever sent male athletes to compete in the Paralympics, as women in the country are barred from taking part in international sports events. There has reportedly been some pressure on the country to allow women competitors for the 2012 Games,〔("Saudi women vie for Olympic rights" ), BBC, June 13, 2008〕 but when a delegation of Saudi Arabia's Disabled Sports Federation Powerlifting Team visited the facilities for the London Games in 2009, its athletes were all men.〔("Saudi Arabian Powerlifter’s visit Stoke Mandeville Stadium" ), South East England Development Agency, June 17, 2009〕 ==Medal tables==
