December 3, 2014 in Moscow will host an event officially called the «The Leaders and representatives Meeting of the International Paralympic Committee, International Sports Federations by type of disability, the National Paralympic Committee of the CIS countries, Eastern Europe and the Baltic States." For the first time President of the International Armwrestling Federation for Disabled Alexander Filimonov will take part in the Paralympic Committee meeting. During the meeting, among other questions, the organizational issues of the World Games for the Disabled in 2016 in Rio de Janeiro will be discussed.
As previously reported, after the First World Armwrestling Championships for the Disabled in Poland, as well as after a successful special presentation, the federation IWAS drew attention to the armwrestling as a sport discipline and suggested to include armwrestling to the program of the World Games for athletes with locomotor apparatus lesions under the auspices of IWAS in Sochi, Russia in 2014.
We're entrusted with a huge mission to do everything during 6 months to join the Paralympic family. And the main door through which we can enter there is World Games where we have to show that our Federation has the technical and sports resources of the highest level.
International Armwrestling Federation for Disabled, after the World Games in Sochi, intends to apply for inclusion of armwrestling to the Paralympic movement.
