The games (which were also postponed from 2020 because of the pandemic) for athletes with different physical disabilities, many of whom use wheelchairs, start on Aug. 24 with the opening ceremony. Over two weeks of archery, swimming, wheelchair basketball, sitting volleyball, and more will once again be broadcast through NBC.
