"VAN" (Sports Desk - 15.08.2026) :: With two years to go until the LA28 Paralympics Games, IPC President Andrew Parsons has promised spectators and TV viewers alike that they will be treated to the best Paralympic Games yet in terms of sport performance and level of competition. Parsons believes the combination of LA’s world class sporting venues and improved performance pathways for Para athletes will result in Paralympic sport reaching new heights when the Games open on 15 August 2028. Andrew Parsons, IPC President, said: “I have never been more excited about the level of sport performance within the Paralympic Movement than I am with two years to go until LA28. Without doubt, LA28 will be the best Paralympic Games yet for sport by some margin with many new superstar athletes emerging and winning medals. “Many of the Para athletes are now full-time athletes benefitting from world-leading sport science. The result is a rapid evolution in sport performance while the depth of competition across all sports and medal events has never been greater. LA’s world-famous sporting venues and facilities will bring out the best in Para athletes and I am certain spectators and TV viewers will be in awe at what they will witness.”
