IPC to offer live streaming of Parapan Am Games

The International Paralympic Committee has said it will provide live streaming of the Toronto 2015 Parapan American Games.

The IPC will live stream four sports – athletics, swimming, wheelchair basketball and wheelchair rugby – together with a mixed channel from the event, which takes place between August 7-15, via the Paralympic.org/live-sport portal.

The opening and closing ceremonies will also be streamed live on the website.

Around 1,600 athletes from 28 countries are set to take part in Toronto 2015 where all 15 sports will act as qualifiers for the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games.

The live streams will also be available via ParalympicSport.TV and will be geo-blocked in certain territories, including host nation Canada.
