Slovakia stamps on Paralympic Sports – Archery – Paris 2024.

It will be the seventeenth time summer sports representatives have participated in the Paralympics. Over eleven days (28th August to 8th September), 4,400 Paralympic athletes will compete for 549 sets of medals in 22 sports. A novelty will be the sports held within venues throughout Paris in some of the most iconic locations: not only at the Eiffel Tower, but also in Versailles, Les Invalides and other attractive locations. The opening ceremony will take place at Place de la Concorde.

Slovak Paralympic athletes will be defending the eleven medals won at Tokio 2020 that included five golds, two silvers and four bronzes. Once again, Slovak hopes will be mainly pinned on the para shooting, para cycling, para table tennis and para archery. In the para archery, key Slovak competitor is Marcel Pavlík, who is shown on the postage stamp. He tuned up for the Paralympic Games when he won the European Championship Pairs title and a bronze medal in the individual.
