LIMA, Aug. 22, 2019 /CNW/ - Two sports are kicking off their Lima 2019 Parapan Am Games campaigns prior to the Opening Ceremony, with wheelchair rugby and Para table tennis in action on Friday.

  • The Canadian wheelchair rugby team will commence its quest for the podium with an opening game against Argentina at 8 a.m. local time / 9 a.m. ET. Canada will ultimately play five round-robin games with the top four teams then advancing into the semifinals. The Canadian squad, gold medallists four years ago, is currently ranked world No. 5 while the Argentines are No. 20.
  • Para table tennis action actually began in Lima on Thursday. Ian Kent, a multiple Parapan Am Games medallist, started off strong with two wins on day one, while Stephanie Chan and Curtis Caron each went 1-1. Friday will see Kent and Caron return to the field of play, as well as teammate Peter Isherwood, as preliminary action continues. For the complete list of results, please click here.
  • The Lima 2019 Parapan Am Games will officially kick off with the Opening Ceremony in the evening. Para table tennis star Chan, a Toronto 2015 gold medallist, will lead the Canadian team into the stadium. She was announced earlier today as the country's flag bearer.
