Superhumans Return!

Channel 4 will broadcast a host of major Para sports events this year as part of the build up to its coverage of the Rio 2016 Paralympics next summer.



Coverage will include more than 30 hours of live events and highlights on TV and online and will feature the very best Para sport athletes competing at the IPC Swimming World Championships; the Sainsbury’s IPC Athletics Grand Prix Final; National Paralympic Day 2015; Para Tri, a mass-participation disability sport event; and the IPC Athletics World Championships from Doha.

 Channel 4’s Commissioning Editor for Sport, Stephen Lyle, said,“These competitions will give viewers an opportunity to re-acquaint themselves with the GB icons and international stars from the unforgettable London 2012 Paralympic Games.”

From 22nd to 31st October More4 will show live action each day from the IPC Athletics World Championships from Doha, Qatar where more than 1,000 athletes from around 90 countries will compete. There will also be daily live streaming of all sessions from the event - one of the last major competitions before the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games.
