Olympic And Paralympic Games 2016

Brazil
Olympic and Paralympic Games sheet 1 (March 24, 2015)
This sheet contains ten designs portraying nine Olympic and Paralympic sports: basketball, rugby, weight lifting, rowing, water sports, archery, cycling, badminton, wrestling and Paralympic athletics.

Olympic and Paralympic Games sheet 2 (August 6, 2015)
This sheet displays nine Olympic sports – boxing, canoe, fencing, football, golf, handball, taekwondo, table tennis and triathlon – as well as one Paralympic sport – judo.

Rio de Janeiro will host the 31th Olympic Games (August 5 - 21, 2016) and the 15th Paralympic Games (September 7 - 18, 2016)

Kuo, don't both sheets picture Olympic and Paralympic events?

(I see only one Paralympic event on each sheet. It's a little strange.)

KGB:

Thank you very much for spotting the errors which I inherited from a catalogue. I revised my post based on the information from the official site (www.rio2016.com). According to this site there will be a third sheet issued in November which contains 11 games.
