Polish Paralympic Committee initiatives

Overview

In late July 2026, the Polish Paralympic Committee organized a series of nationwide Paralympic Picnics, bringing together thousands of participants—including children and families—to try adaptive sports equipment and learn from Paralympic athletes. The events highlighted accessibility, with dedicated zones for wheelchair users and those with visual impairments, and were tied to a media series promoting sport participation.

A week later, the committee shifted focus to operational support, issuing a market‑research tender for hotel, catering and sports‑facility services to host a disability‑focused workshop in Jastrzębia Góra. The same announcement included the Polish Badminton Association’s call for a sponsor for the 2026/27 PGE Polish Badminton Super‑League, indicating a broader effort to secure funding and resources for both Paralympic and broader disability‑related sporting activities.
