Archery
Archery was one of the first sports ever to be competed in. Wheelchair archers compete equally with able-bodied individuals and have minimal rule modifications.
Archery is one of the few sports whereby those with various physical disabilities compete against each other. There are 3 classes - ARST is the category for standing shooters with limited muscle strength loss in the legs, ARW1 is consisted of quadriplegic wheelchair bound archers, and ARW2 is for those who have more moveability and open to all wheelchair classes. Competitive rounds are generally 36 arrows shot at distances ranging from 30-90 metres.
