[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] On the 8th at 1:30 PM, Oh Seung-rok, Mayor of Nowon-gu, attended the 2020 Nowon-gu Disabled Sports for All Competition held at the district office auditorium.


This event, held to promote disabled sports for all and improve welfare for the disabled, was conducted on a small scale to prevent the spread of COVID-19.


Ninety registered members of the Nowon-gu Disabled Sports Association participated, divided into two sessions. No team events were held; instead, individual events in five new sports?Hangueng, Shullun, Flying Disc, Curling, and Wheelchair Relay?were conducted.


The event was attended by Mayor Oh, Seoul City Council members Kim Saeng-hwan and Bong Yang-soon, Nowon-gu Council Chairperson Choi Yoon-nam, Seoul Disabled Sports Association Secretary-General Lim Chan-gyu, and the President of the Nowon-gu Disabled Sports Association. The program proceeded with the national anthem, opening declaration, congratulatory speeches, and the main competition.



Mayor Oh Seung-rok of Nowon-gu said, “The Disabled Sports Competition, held annually since 2013, is regrettably scaled down this year due to the impact of COVID-19. I ask for continued interest and support to promote disabled sports for all in the future.”
