Russian doping scandal 
15 National Paralympic Committees and the International Wheelchair and Amputee Sports Federation signed a letter expressing support for the National Paralympic Committee of Russia in August 2017.  The countries included Armenia, Belarus, Bulgaria, Vietnam, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, China, Laos, Moldova, Mongolia, Serbia, Tajikistan, Montenegro, and South Korea.  They asked the IPC Governing Board to consider letting Russia compete at the 2018 Winter Paralympics.  The letter was signed weeks before the IPC Governing Board met in Abu Dhabi. In September 2017, this decision was reviewed and upheld.  The International Paralympic Committee (IPC) still had concerns about doping in Russian sport.  All the conditions the IPC required of the Russians were not met.

Preparation 
Kazakhstan is not competing in sledge hockey in 2018.  The country is preparing for the future.  They want to compete in sledge hockey in the future. Kazakhstan created a program in early 2018.  Toyota became a sponsor in October 2017.

Para-Nordic skiing 
Two years before the start of the Games, Kazakstan decided they wanted to win medals in South Korea. They started on two years of planning and training to accomplish this. The team spent nearly a year training in Germany before the South Korean hosted Games.  They used snow tunnels during the summer months.  This allowed them to train in winter conditions all year.  During the summer, they also trained using bicycles.  Because of sponsorship, many team members got new prostheses while in Germany.  Kolyadin said of his new prosthetic, "They created a new prosthesis. When I got it, I tried it. Now I am accustomed to using it. I think I will win by using it in the race. It takes time to learn new technology. But there is 100% control - I like it."  The team went to Russia for World Cup events.  They did more training in Russia.  They also went to a competition in Finland. The team returned to Almaty three weeks before the Games started.  This was so they could do additional training.

The national team had about fifteen people.  Only seven are going to South Korea. Their average age is from about 27 years old to 40 years old.

Background 
In autumn of 2017, responsibility for sending a team to the Paralympics was changed from Parasport Denmark, the National Paralympic Committee of Denmark, to  National Olympic Committee and Sports Confederation of Denmark (DIF).  The decision was made because people wanted to make Olympic and Paralympic sport more equal. Niels Christiansen, secretary general of Parasport Denmark, said, "We are very happy with the move, and we look forward to working together with DIF. The Paralympics and the development and preparation of world class Para-athletes is still very much a focal point of our work in Parasport Denmark, but allowing DIF to take the reigns sends an important message and hopefully it will lead to even more Paralympic success for Denmark." Despite this change, Parasport Denmark was still in charge of preparing to send a team to the Winter Paralympic Games.

History 
Denmark first went to the Winter Paralympics in 1980 in Geilo.  Before South Korea, they had won a total of two gold medals, one silver medal and three bronze medals at the Winter Games.

The last time the country won a medal at the 1994 Winter Paralympics.

They need help to put on jackets.  They may need help to get into a special chair. It can be difficult to stay warm when you do not have hands.  Winter sports are also very expensive.  The cost makes it difficult for many people to participate.

Goals 
Poland did not win any medals at the 2014 Winter Paralympics.   Poland won a bronze medal at the 2010 Winter Paralympics. Polish Paralympic Committee President Łukasz Szeliga said the goal of Poland is to have better finishes than 2010 and 2014.  They would like to win at least one medal.
