Both men's and women's tournaments used to qualify ten teams each for the 2020 Summer Paralympics.[3] On 19 November 2021, the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) announced that during the 2024 Summer Paralympics, all the team sports would only have eight participating teams for both men and women.[4] This reduced the round-robin games of two events from 40 to 24 games.[5]
