China at the Paralympics


China first competed at the Paralympic Games in 1984, at the Summer Games in New York City, United States. Since the Athens Games, China has topped the medal table at every Summer Paralympics. Despite having competed at every Winter Games since Salt Lake City in 2002, China did not win a single medal until at the 2018 Winter Paralympics, where China won their first ever gold medal as well as the first medal in the wheelchair curling competition.
