BACKGROUND
Participation in sports represents a potent means of empowerment and social inclusion. Nevertheless, women with physical impairments encounter specific challenges in accessing Para sports. The main aim of this study is to present the experiential participation and achievements in sports of women with physical impairments in Saudi Arabia.
METHODS
Twenty women athletes with physical impairments who engaged in competitive Para sports in Saudi Arabia were interviewed. Interpretive phenomenological analysis was employed to extract themes elucidating the experiences of women athletes with physical impairments in Para sports.
RESULTS
Four dimensions were identified: (i) Exploring participation in sports; (ii) The positive impact of participation in sports; (iii) obstacles in participation in sport; and (iv) hopes and aspirations to improve participation in Para sports.
CONCLUSION
In Saudi Arabia, participation in Para sports functions as a powerful tool for empowering and socially integrating women with physical impairments. However, these women encounter challenges in accessing sports. Achieving empowerment in Para sports necessitates the establishment of an inclusive ecosystem that celebrates diversity and equality. Collaborative efforts from governments, sports organizations, communities, and individuals are indispensable in creating an environment where women with impairments can flourish in sports.
背景
参与体育运动是增强权能和社会包容的有力手段。然而，身体有残障的女性在参与残疾人体育活动时面临着特殊挑战。本研究的主要目的是介绍沙特阿拉伯身体有残障女性的体育参与经历和成就。
方法
对20名在沙特阿拉伯参加残疾人竞技体育的女性运动员进行了访谈。采用解释现象学分析方法来提取主题，以阐明身体有残障的女性运动员在残疾人体育活动中的经历。
结果
确定了四个维度：（i）探索体育参与；（ii）体育参与的积极影响；（iii）体育参与的障碍；（iv）改善残疾人体育参与的希望和愿望。
结论
在沙特阿拉伯，参与残疾人体育活动是增强身体有残障女性权能和促进其社会融合的有力工具。然而，这些女性在参与体育活动时面临挑战。要在残疾人体育中实现赋权，就必须建立一个包容多样性和平等的生态系统。政府、体育组织、社区和个人的共同努力对于营造一个让残障女性在体育中蓬勃发展的环境不可或缺。
