Ahmed Kelly, Madison de Rozario and the Gold medal game for Wheelchair Rugby will make for a triple treat of action on Day 5 of the Paris 2024 Paralympics Games, available live and free on the 9Network and 9Now.
Para Triathlon will begin coverage from 4.00pm AEST on 9GemHD, before Aussie smiling assassin Ahmed Kelly dives in for the Men’s backstroke S3 on a busy day of Para Swimming.
An orphan from Iraq, Kelly was born with underdeveloped limbs after being exposed to chemical weapons, his incredible life journey sees him now competing in his fourth Paralympics, where he is out to win his maiden gold medal, after securing silver at Tokyo 2020.
In the Para Athletics, Madison de Rozario begins her tilt at the Women’s 1500m T54 and Michael Burian will compete in the final of the Men’s Javelin Throw F64.
Wheelchair Rugby reaches its crescendo when the gold and bronze medal games take place on a day that includes Aussie representation in Para Archery, Shooting and Boccia.
All the Live action is available on a curated Paralympics channel across Channel 9HD and 9GemHD, with every moment streamed on 9Now, where you can also stay up to date with Daily Highlights, Daily Top 10 Moments, and curated highlights for Team Australia, Para Swimming and Para Athletics.
