Paralympic Rules

The rules of the Paralympic Summer Games.

There are a number of little-known rules that are very rarely known by paralympic athletes:

*In the finale of the men’s 100m, the lane on which a competitor runs legally becomes the territory of his nation.

*In the Javelin, the use of actual javelins is not required. For example, during the 1974 Games, a Canadian paralympic athlete with no arms used a bow and arrow.

*It is legal and encouraged to use leg or arm attached spring pogo blades.

*Any disabled baby born inside the main stadium during the course of the Games gains diplomatic immunity.

*In case of a death during an event, the late paralympic athlete’s nation gets double points.

*If, during a contest (such as weight-lifting) a competitor dislocates a major joint, “no attempt shall be made to mask or in any way hinder the audience’s viewing of the injury”.

*Anyone under 16 is allowed to take part in the Paralympic Games if he/she is Russian.

*The UK is not allowed to win the overall medals tally, as nothing but complete failure will please the rest of the world. (This rule was abolished in 2012 for the London Paralympics).

*The Paralympic Sports can only be televised on the BBC if the British are good at it.

  1. So that cunt, Phil Neville is fucking off and hopes a “once-in-a-lifetime” role as Valencia assistant boss will lead to a job as a manager. …..

    “I see it as another A-level on my coaching curriculum vitae,” Neville told BBC Sport.

    “I’ve coached at Manchester United, I’m doing my Uefa Pro-Licence and now this is like a bonus.”

    So he coached at United without having any coaching badges? No wonder he was shite.. Glad to konw he’s pissing off and we won’t have to see him talking crap on Match Of The Day…

  2. Ah, Phil Neville, one half of dumb & dumber, the Neville brothers.
    The looks of the chukle brothers, the talent of the Gallagher brothers and to top it off their Dad is called Neville
    What a monumental pair of cunts who feed the notion all brothers hailing from Manchester are Neanderthal in-bred fucktards!
