As the date for the commencement of the 2024 Paralympics Games draws nearer, the Paralympic Committee of Nigeria (PCN) has commenced camping exercises for its athletes.
The Paralympic games will be held between August 28 and September 8 in Paris.
President, Paralympics Committee of Nigeria (PCN), Mr Sunday Odebode informed the PCN media that the para-athletics and Para Badminton will be in Abuja for their camping exercise while para powerlifting and para table tennis will be in Lagos for the exercise.
“As you are all aware, the Paralympic games are around the corner and we at PCN are not leaving any stone unturned to ensure adequate preparations for our athletes, hence the decision to commence camping in earnest. This will put the athletes in good shape during the games where we hope to excel and make the country proud.”
He further said that other federations will soon embark on their camping once venues have been secured.
