Paralympic history
Summer Games

The Central African Republic made its Paralympic Games début at the 2004 Summer Paralympics in Athens. It sent a single athlete, Thibaut Bomaya, to compete in powerlifting. The country also entered a single-man delegation at the 2008 Summer Paralympics in Beijing, where Rosel-Clemariot-Christian Nikoua competed in shot put. The Central African Republic has never taken part in the Winter Paralympics, and has never won a Paralympic medal.[1]

The Central African Republic will be taking part in the 2012 Summer Paralympics, and the Comité National Paralympique Centrafricain have chosen Bedford as the UK training base for its Paralympians.[2]
