Following on from the success of the Beijing Paralympic coverage, where we were privileged to watch stars such as Ellie Simmons, David Weir and Darren Kenny in action, BBC Sport is delighted to be the host broadcaster covering the BT Paralympic World Cup which once again will take place in Manchester.

BBC2 will be showing the best of the action from this major international disability sporting event in a dedicated programme.

Dave Gordon Head of Major Events for BBC Sport said: "New heroes and heroines were created in Beijing. There is a clear audience appetite for world class disability sport and we in BBC Sport believe that this exciting event can play a crucial role in continuing to raise the profile of disability sport in the years between Paralympics”.
