A total of 24 countries are represented at the Boccia World Cup in São Paulo. Kazakhstan is represented by three athletes:

• Itiana Shingiskhanova — four-time national champion;

• Kuanysh Askarbekov — two-time national champion;

• Azamat Amansha — national champion.

All three athletes began their sporting journeys in inclusive sports sections established with the support of Samruk-Kazyna Trust as part of the Salamatty Bolashak project. Having started out in these sections, they went on to pursue boccia professionally and now represent Kazakhstan on the international stage.

The competition will run until November 12. The Kazakhstan team continues to compete for medals in the team events.
