The International Olympic Committee, the Japanese Government and the Tokyo Games Organising Committee (TOCOG) have confirmed that, as a result of the global COVID-19 outbreak, the Games will move to the northern hemisphere summer of 2021.
Paralympics Australia applauds decision A message from Nathan - March 2020 Now is an important time to take care of ourselves and our loved ones! As for the postponement of the Paralympics I am still committed to performing at my best and representing Australia on the world stage. I am safe here in Munich in lockdown but in a table tennis centre of course so I’ll get back to training for another year Nathan is looking forward to representing Australia in Table Tennis at the Tokyo Paralympics. This is a tough and grueling path for any athlete and for Nathan, born in 1996 with cerebral palsy it has more difficulties than you can imagine. He is well on his way.
Not all of us can aspire to be Olympians but we can revel in the highs and support Nathan as he battles the lows along this rocky path to Tokyo. Become part of Nathan’s Support Squad and be directly involved in a reality experience that will sweep you along with him and know that your support really counts. |
