Para- Sports Training Centre.

Abstract

In Paralympics, athletes compete in wheelchairs, with prosthetic limbs, and without senses such as hearing or sight. A Para-Sports training Centre can give physically challenged athletes a boost in their training and pave the way to raise awareness of disabilities and help to create a more supportive and better-equipped world for them. Their disabilities such as impaired muscle power, impaired passive range of movements, limb deficiency, leg length difference, short stature, hypertonia, vision impairment, and intellectual impairment should be considered while designing the training Centre. Many specially challenged people who dream of being a Paralympian find it hard to do so because of various reasons such as discrimination and tough economic culture. The purpose of a Para-Sports Training Centre is to allow them to build themselves up and make them push themselves to the highest possible limits and to be the pride of their family and the country. In India, athletes are mainly trained under the government-aided sports authority called the Paralympic Committee of India and other foundations like SAI, and Go Sports, which have a lot of limitations in their infrastructure to support them, especially in providing them with the best Equipment for their training as there are limitations to funds. Creating a Centre equivalent to international standards creates an opportunity to gain attention and educational support by collaborating with international sports associations. This will also help in improving India's image on the International Sports front, which is currently in desperate need of a boost. Designing a Centre exclusively for para-athletes is a huge challenge considering the factors involved like food, accommodation, areas for both outdoor and indoor sports, theory classrooms, and a medical Centre but if done right most economically and feasibly.
