The London 2012 Paralympic Archery competition will be played at The Royal Artillery Barracks in the River Zone from Thursday 30 August to Wednesday 5 September. Hosting the Olympic Shooting events one month earlier, the south-east London venue is steeped in history - while Archery is considered the original Paralympic sport. Back in 1948 when London last hosted the Olympic Games, a doctor at the Stoke Mandeville Hospital organised an archery competition for 16 Second World War army veterans: this annual event - the precursor to the Paralympic Games - grew and soon became an international competition featuring more and more sports. At London 2012, the Paralympic Archery competition will include nine medal events with athletes competing in three classes - standing (DT), Wheelchair 1 (W1) and Wheelchair 2 (W2). Medal events are split between the Compound and Recurve bow, and include both Team and Individual competitions.
About Royal Artillery Barracks
The Royal Artillery Barrracks are not open to the public. But you can learn about the history of the Gunners at Firepower, The Royal Artillery Museum, a 15 minute walk from here.The London port of Woolwich has a long military history, and so it was highly apt that the Royal Artillery Barracks should host the Olympic shooting events for London 2012.
