Brief summary: The primary objective of the study: improvement of sportive performances by quantification and performances monitoring of paralympic athletes.

The secondary objectives of the study:

* quantification and performances monitoring of mechanical performances during the filed tests, the laboratory analysis and the sportive competitions;
* quantification and performances monitoring of physiological performances during the filed tests, the laboratory analysis and the sportive competitions;
* quantification and risk monitoring of discipline-relative musculo-squeletic troubles, caused by training or using of sportive equipment;
* quantification and mechanical monitoring by the made-to-measure or usual sportive material.

Detailed description: The sportive performance results from a range of determinations such as: physiological, biomechanical, morphological, psychological, social and environmental factors. The interactions between athletes, equipment, training and environment influences the development of athletes' performance. In the context of the coming Paris 2024 Paralympic Games, the performance construction for the exploration, the quantification and the management of all factors is an commun objective between sportive team, medical team and researchers.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* High-lever paralympic athletes registered on the ministerial list or selected by Parasport Federation of France or Shooting Federation of France;
* Aged \>= 14 years;
* Informed consent signed by adult athlete or by holder of parental authority or guardian for minor athlete;
* Covered by social security system.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Temporary or definitive contraindication to the practice of the affected sport activity;
* Undergoing anti-coagulated treatments;
* Cognitive disabilities conducting impossibility to participating to clinical trial, such as serious cognitive troubles, behaviors troubles, psychic troubles or upgraded curatorship needing;
* Under guardianship or judicial decision;
* Ongoing pregnancy.
