South Africa competed at the 1992 Summer Paralympics in Barcelona, Spain. 10 competitors from South Africa won 8 medals, including 4 gold, 1 silver and 3 bronze and finished 27th in the medal table.[1]
The team used a specially designed sporting flag for these games, which was also used at the 1992 Summer Olympic Games. The flag consisted of a white field charged with a grey diamond, which represented the countries mineral wealth, three cascading bands of blue, orange and green, which represented the sea, the land and agriculture respectively and the Olympic rings.[2] [3] [4]
