Asia Pacific Deaf Games: Difference between revisions

The sports movement for the deaf in Asia was started by the late Mr. Chou Kuo-tung from Taipei China in 1983, where the first Far Eastern Deaf Football Championship was held with 4 countries namely Japan, Korea, Hong Kong and Chinese Taipei participating.

The first sporting event in the Asia and Pacific region that was endorsed by the International Committee Sports of the Deaf and recognized by the International Olympic Committee, took place in 1984. The event was the First Asia Pacific Deaf Soccer Championship in Hong Kong.

The Championships were held biennially in Kyoto, Japan (1986) and Melbourne, Australia (1988).

The Asia Pacific Deaf Sports Confederation (APDSC) was formed during the 3rd Asia Pacific Deaf Soccer Championships in Melbourne.

During the 4th Championship in Seoul in 1992, APDSC passed a resolution to change the name from Asia Pacific Deaf Soccer Championships to Asia Pacific Games for the Deaf and changing it from biennial to every four years.
