The 2014 IFDS World Championships in Halifax, Canada acted as the first qualification regatta for the Rio 2016 Paralympic Sailing Competition.

The Qualification System for the Rio 2016 Paralympic Sailing Competition has been released.

In September 2012 the British Paralympic Association (BPA) submitted an appeal to the Court of Arbitration of Sport (CAS) against a series of decisions made by the International Jury at the Paralympic Sailing Competition during the three-person keelboat event.

No racing was possible on the final day of sailing at the London 2012 Paralympic Sailing Competition meaning that the results from the day prior confirmed the medals.

Sailors may be left frustrated on the final day of the Paralympic Sailing Competition with just a 10% chance of a light sea breeze blowing for at least two hours.
