It's been a highly successful Paralympics for the Irish athletes so far through four days of competition - and we're hoping that a busy day on the first Monday will be no different. There are some medals on the line, a chance to get one over on the aul enemy, and the first chance to see some more of our athletes.
Here is the full list of the Irish in action, with all times listed in Irish summer time:
1.30 Sean Baldwin - Shooting, R7 50m rifle 3Positions Qualifier
After seeing Sean in the 10m prone and standing events - he'll get a chance to compete in his favoured distance. There will be three positions - kneeling, standing, and prone. Should he qualify, the men's final will be at 5.30.

James has had a brilliant games so far, recording a PB in his preferred distance of 200m in the freestyle final. He's clearly having the time of his life in Rio:
I’m over the moon, 10 out of 10 this is absolutely the pinnacle moment of my career to date. The atmosphere out there, I can’t stress it enough, it will never be matched at another Games, I’m so grateful to Brazil they’ve put on a phenomenal show.

8.15 Ireland CP Football - Ireland v Great Britain
It's been a tough tournament for the Irish. They fell to the no.1 ranked Ukraine in the first game, and then succumbed to the host nation in the second. Both Brazil and Ukraine have already claimed the quarterfinal spots from this group - but they'll love nothing more than to beat their neighbours in their final outing.
