Events are given a code, made of numbers and letters, describing the type of event and classification of the athletes competing. Some sports, such as athletics, divide athletes by both the category and severity of their disabilities, other sports, for example swimming, group competitors from different categories together, the only separation being based on the severity of the disability.[6] Athletics{{main|Athletics at the 2012 Summer Paralympics}}Malawi had originally selected Chisomo Jelemani and Janet Shedani, however their events were not disclosed.[7] See also
