Preparations for the Bahrain 2021 Asian Youth Para Games took a big step forward when a delegation from the Asian Paralympic Committee (APC) visited Manama, Bahrain, met with members of the Local Organising Committee and took part in a ceremony to mark the formal signing of the Host City Contract.
Although preparations have continued behind the scenes, the site visit and signing ceremony had been delayed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
