The International Paralympic Committee (IPC) Governing Board recently voted to add para-canoe and para-triathlon onto the Paralympic Programme for the Rio 2016 Games.
Quote ICF website:"The ICF-led application for inclusion was made in partnership with the International Va’a Federation. It’s President, Mr Charles Villierme stated, “This is a great day for paddlers throughout the world. The collaboration and strong positive working relationship with the ICF has given Va’a paddling a huge boost world-wide”."
I congratulate Charley with this great achievement! This will really help us to promote the sport.
