Classes

The Paralympic archery competitions were divided into three classes:

• W1, for archers in wheelchairs with limited arm and leg functions.
• W2, for archers in wheelchairs with limited arm or leg functions.
• ST, for standing archers whose leg functions are limited, but who can still stand.

Results

A total of 140 athletes, 88 male and 52 female, took part in the Paralympic archery competitions. The four competitions for women were an open competition with a compound bow , i.e. open to all classes, and two competitions with the recurve bow , one for W1 and W2 and one for ST.
