South Africa sent a team to compete at the 1972 Summer Paralympics held in Heidelberg, West Germany, from August 2 to 11. They sent twenty five competitors, twelve male and thirteen female.〔 The team won forty-one medals—sixteen gold, twelve silver and thirteen bronze—and finished fourth in the medal table.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.paralympic.org/Sport/Results/reports.html?type=medalstandings&games=1972PG&sport=all )〕 Despite being banned from the Olympic Games, because of the policy of apartheid, since 1964 South Africa continued to participate in the Paralympics until 1976.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.iisg.nl/collections/anti-apartheid/history/jaren70-5.php )〕 ==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.
