    The Para-snowboarders are back in action for their second event – the banked slalom, which has been brought forward from Saturday.

    Athletes race against the clock down a winding course with tight turns. Each athlete has two runs and the best decides their final ranking.

    Nina Sparks will create history as Britain’s first female Paralympic snowboarder in the women’s LL2 event, which starts the day with run one from 08:00 and run two from 10:00.

    Ollie Hill won Britain’s first Paralympic medal in the sport with bronze in this event four years ago, and he will go again in the men’s LL2 (Lower Limb) event.

    Compatriot James Barnes-Miller, who was ninth in Beijing, will aim to challenge for a medal in the men’s UL (upper limb) event but Chinese riders will again be the ones to watch.

    Briton Matt Hamilton makes his Games debut in the same division while Davy Zyw, who is thought to be the first snowsport athlete with motor neurone disease to compete at the Games, is scheduled to be in action in his second event.

    Scott Meenagh completes his Para-biathlon campaign in the men’s sprint pursuit seated event (qualifying 09:15; final 11:45) in which missed shots mean a 20-second time penalty rather than a penalty loop.

    Meenagh was seventh at last year’s World Championships and has had three top-eight finishes over the distance in this year’s World Cup races.

    In the visually impaired races, Germany’s Leonie Walter and Oleksandr Kazik of Ukraine will be aiming to add the Paralympic title to their 2025 world crowns.

    And in the standing division, Canada will be aiming for a double through Natalie Wilkie and five-time Paralympian Mark Arendz, with both landing World Cup wins this season.

    In the wheelchair curling, the mixed team semi-finals take place at 09:05. It will be a quick turnaround for the semi-final losers, with the bronze-medal match at 17:35.

    In Milan, the Para-ice hockey semi-finals take place with the sport’s big two both in action. Defending champions USA face Czechia at 13:35 before their big rivals Canada take on China at 18:05.
