HAVE MORE PARALYMPIANS BOOKED RIO SPOTS?
Mar 22, 2016
Just days after we announced that Jordan is heading for a record delegation at this year’s Paralympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, there is a good chance that the nine confirmed could be joined by more.
That is because the Jordan delegation at this week’s 8th Fazza IPC Athletics Championship in Dubai – a qualifying tournament for Rio – saw Jordanians come home with four medals.
Amer Abdel Aziz won silver in the discus and bronze in the shot put; Belal Sa'adeh won silver in the 400m and Odai Shehadeh won a bronze medal in 200m and will now wait to see whether they have made the squad which is set to be announced in the next month.
