Hello everyone,

The Paralympic Games kick off tomorrow, so we're excited to kick off our Paralympics Medal Table Prediction Contest!

How it works

Predict the Final Medal table:

Post your predictions for which countries will be in the top five of the medal standings by the end of the Paralympics.

If you would like to stand a chance of winning the Gold Medal badge, please include how many gold, silver and bronze medals you think each of those countries will win.

Notes:

  • There will be 549 medal 🏅 events at Paris 2024 Paralympics, which means there are 549 🥇 gold, 549 🥈 silver and 549 🥉 bronze medals up for grabs.
  • Our final table will be ordered by how many gold medals each country wins, rather than their total medal haul.

For example:

  1. China: 25 gold, 28 silver, 30 bronze
  2. USA: 24 gold, 42 silver, 58 bronze
  3. Great Britain: 21 gold, 20 silver, 19 bronze
  4. France: 20 gold, 50 silver, 20 bronze
  5. Japan: 18 gold, 28 silver, 21 bronze

What will you win?

  • Paralympic Predictor badge: Anyone who participates will earn a special community Paralympics Predictor badge to show off your Paralympics spirit
  • Perfect Podium badge: Any participant who correctly predicts the top five countries in the final medal table will win the Perfect Podium badge.
  • Gold Medal badge: The participant whose predictions are closest to the actual medal table will receive a Gold Medal Predictor badge

How to enter

  • Reply to this discussion with your medal table predictions. Remember to include your top five countries to stand a chance of winning the Perfect Podium badge and how many gold medals, silver medals and bronze medals they will win to stand a chance of winning the Gold Medal badge.
  • Make sure your predictions are posted before the Paralympics games begin!

Good luck!

    Well I do love a badge!

    Though I'm rubbish with sport, but I reckon GB will do well in the swimming and Germany will do great in the para-athletics.

    1. USA - 25 gold
    2. Germany - 22 gold
    3. UK - 20 gold
    4. China - 15 gold
    5. Japan - 10 gold

    I have no idea about the number of medals, so will fill that in later. 😆
