What are the Deaflympics
The Deaflympics (official name: World Games for the Deaf) are an international multi-sport event for deaf athletes. They are held every four years, alternating between summer and winter games.
The goal of the Deaflympics is to provide deaf athletes with the opportunity to compete at an elite level and to promote awareness and understanding of deaf culture and issues.
