The IBSF told insidethegames in October that it will submit a bid to have Para-bobsleigh and Para-skeleton included on the Winter Paralympic Games programme at Beijing 2022.

The body was invited to apply by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) after they opened the application process for the Games on October 1.

There are currently six sports on the programme for Pyeongchang 2018 - Alpine skiing, biathlon, cross-country skiing, ice sledge hockey, snowboard and wheelchair curling - and the IPC have set a limit of seven for Beijing 2022.

International Olympic Committee member and two-time skeleton Olympian Adam Pengilly of Britain had told insidethegames in December 2014 that the IBSF were "very optimistic" of having a strong candidature and having their bid ready for 2022.
