Para archer Damien Letulle to make emotional return to the Invalides

For French Para archer Damien Letulle, competing at the Invalides at the Paris 2024 Paralympics carries a special meaning. It is not only because he wants to take part in the biggest showcase of Para sports, but also because he spent time in the Invalides before, rehabilitating from his accident.

Letulle, who competed at the Atlanta 1996 Olympic Games, is hoping to take the spotlight in front of a home crowd in Paris. Competing at the Invalides is not just a goal but a deeply personal mission. Returning to this iconic venue as a competitor, rather than a patient, signifies an incredible full-circle moment.
