disabled sport But still we have very work for to do. These athletes there aren´t importance or recognition that they deserve. Then we can see several differences between disable athletes and non-disable athletes, in addition to an example about Olympic athlete that won a gold medal in swimming. The first difference is that the team there are behind for a Paralympic athlete is greater than other without disability. The team have to move much more equipment and people. The second is that the media coverage always will be greater in athlete’s non-disabled than for other athletes. All people of the world known Michael Phelps, but only a few people know to Enhamed Enhamed. This last win three gold medal in Olympic Games. The remuneration in both Olympics games is very different. One Olympic golden medal has a reward of € 94,000 instead one Paralympic gold medal has a reward of €10,000€ We can observe considerable differences that even nowadays exists between both athletes. That is unfair since the effort for the disabled athlete is much greater. The Paralympic athlete must overcome himself physically and psychologically day after day. I am sure that with just a little more effort this differences could be reduced. For it we could to try promote to the same level the athletes, I am certain that all people remember the Olympic mascot but nobody remember the Paralympic mascot, if the media works were the same for all Paralympics sport sure that more than one person would remember their mascot. Another effort that could also done by the sponsoring companies is an equal distribution their advertising budgets and allocate them. This policies are very easy to put it into practice if given the right importance. I would compare it with the fight for the Women's rights. Nowadays is normal that the equality is imposed through laws, but I am wonder ¿ why don’t exist laws that also promote this equality in sport? In the same way ¿why isn't right that the women receive lower wages than a man in the same job? ¿why should has an athlete a less prize in the same event?
