The word "Paralympic" derives from the Greek preposition "para" (beside or alongside) and the word "Olympic". Its meaning is that Paralympics are the parallel Games to the Olympics and illustrates how the two movements exist side-by-side.
A Para athlete is an athlete that has a disability or impairment that makes them eligible to compete in Para sport. The ultimate goal for many Para athletes is to represent their country at a Paralympic Games.
