"Let the Games begin" - 2016 Paralympic Games
|
The Rio 2016 Paralympic Games Table Tennis action will begin from 8th September till 17th with 29 medal matches from both Singles and Team events.
The Men’s and Women’s Singles events will follow a round robin format in the preliminary rounds with the winner and the runner up of each group progressing to the next phase, which will be a knock out format.
As the 2015 Para Pan American Games Champion, Stephanie qualified herself early for the 2016 Paralympic Games in Rio. She will be competing in the women's class 7. With her is Para National Team Coach John Macpherson and Blue Badge Umpire Jeffrey Wong.
“This is the first time that we ever had a player ranked in the top-10 compete at the Paralympic Games,” said John MacPherson, Table Tennis Canada’s para head coach. “Stephanie has the potential for excellent results in Rio and I know she will be an inspiration to those who follow her in the future.”
