Incheon 2014 The 2010 Asian Para Games (2010年亚洲残疾人运动会 Èr líng yī líng nián Yàzhōu cánjí rén yùndònghuì), also known as the First Asian Para Games, was a parallel sports event for Asian athletes with a disability held in Guangzhou, China. Two weeks after the conclusion of the 16th Asian Games, it opened on December 12 and closed on December 19, 2010. Approximately 2,500 athletes from 45 Asian member nations participated in 341 events from 19 sports. The games was opened by vice premier Li Keqiang at the Guangdong Olympic Stadium. The final medal tally was led by China, followed by South Korea and third-placed Japan. 17 world and 82 Asian records were broken during the games. Host city The Asian Para Games succeeded the FESPIC Games, whose governing body, the FESPIC Federation, was dissolved during the last edition in 2006 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia after merger with Asian Paralympic Council to become Asian Paralympic Committee. On July 1, 2004, the Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) selected Guangzhou to host the 2010 Asian Games at their 23rd general assembly session in Doha, Qatar, with Guangzhou being the sole bidder of the event. A FESPIC Federation General Assembly held on 28 November 2006 at the last FESPIC Games' host city appointed the city as host of the Para Games, resulted in the tradition of hosting both the Asian Games and Para Games in the same city. However, as the Asian Paralympic Committee had just emerged, they had yet to sign any agreement with the Olympic Council of Asia. Hence, the Asian Para Games were not yet included in the Asian Games' host city contract. Both games ran independently of each other and were managed by different Organising Committees: Guangzhou Asian Games Organising Committee (GAGOC) for Asian Games and Guangzhou Asian Para Games Organising Committee (GAPGOC) for Asian Para Games.https://www.lifeofguangzhou.com/node_10/node_37/node_85/2006/11/29/116476375111727.shtml Guangzhou wins bid to host 2010 Asian Para-Games 2020-04-15 2020-11-23 https://web.archive.org/web/20201123114108/https://www.lifeofguangzhou.com/node_10/node_37/node_85/2006/11/29/116476375111727.shtml dead Guangzhou to Host 2010 Asian Para-Games Development and preparation Venues Competition and training venues plus all other facilities used for the 16th Asian Games were converted to meet the disability-accessible requirements for Asian Para Games athletes, officials, staff and audience.http://english.gov.cn/2006-11/30/content_458221.htm Guangzhou: Olympic Sports Center chosen as chief venue for 2010 Asian Games 2009-05-20 https://web.archive.org/web/20070928011338/http://english.gov.cn/2006-11/30/content_458221.htm 2007-09-28 dead http://www.gzapg2010.cn/special/0089016B/sports10.html https://web.archive.org/web/20110707044605/http://www.gzapg2010.cn/special/0089016B/sports10.html dead 2011-07-07 Sports Guangdong Olympic Stadium (Main Venue) - Opening and closing ceremonies, Athletics (track and field) Aoti Archery Range - Archery Tianhe Gymnasium - Badminton Zhongda Gymnasium - Boccia Tianhe Bowling Hall - Bowling Guangzhou Velodrome - Cycling (track) University Town Triathlon Venue - Cycling (road), Athletics (marathon) Aoti Hockey Field - Football 5-a-side Huagong Stadium - Football 7-a-side Huagong Gymnasium - Judo Guanggong Gymnasium - Goalball Asian Games Town Gymnasium - Powerlifting, Table tennis Guangdong International Rowing Centre - Rowing Aoti Shooting Range - Shooting Aoti Aquatic Centre - Swimming Guangwai Gymnasium - Sitting volleyball Guangyao Gymnasium - Wheelchair basketball Guangda Gymnasium - Wheelchair fencing Tianhe Tennis School - Wheelchair tennis http://news.xinhuanet.com/english2010/sports/2010-12/19/c_13655911.htm https://web.archive.org/web/20110111144424/http://news.xinhuanet.com/english2010/sports/2010-12/19/c_13655911.htm dead January 11, 2011 Inaugural Asian Para Games concludes with flame and spirit to stay forever 2010-12-19 Xinhua 20 December 2010 Torch relay The flame of 2010 Asian Para Games was lit on 3 December in China Millennium Monument in Beijing.
