At the Nagano 1998 Paralympic Winter Games, just before the ice hockey action began, children presented handmade paper cranes to the Japanese Para ice hockey team. In Japan, origami cranes symbolize hope, peace and strength. This touching exchange captured the spirit of the Games in Nagano, where sport and community came together in a powerful way. A beautiful reminder that the Paralympic Games are about more than competition ❄️✨ 🎟 Get your tickets now at Tickets.MilanoCortina2026.org 💫 #ChangeStartsWithSport #Paralympics #Nagano1998 #ParaIcehockey #Icehockey #WinterSports The International Paralympic Committee's vision is to make for an inclusive world through Para sport.
