After the Winter Olympic Games, the spotlight now shifts to the Paralympic Games in Milan and Cortina d’Ampezzo. According to Tomáš Varga, head of the Slovak Paralympic delegation, Slovakia will make history — sending its largest winter Paralympic team ever and, for the first time, competing in every sport on the programme. Just before the team’s departure to Italy, we spoke with Miroslav Dráb, general manager of the Slovak para hockey national team, as well as several athletes heading to the Games. Among them are para hockey players Michal Hlinka and captain Martin Joppa, curling team captain Radoslav Ďuriš, rising para alpine skiing talent Alexandra Rexová, and Slovakia’s most successful winter Paralympian, former skier Henrieta Farkašová, who shared her experience ahead of the Games, along with other members of the team.
