Quarters a bit cramped?

edit

I did the math, 10,000 divided by 1,300 -- about eight athletes per unit. Jeez, a bit of a hardship to ask them to share one bathroom. I wonder if there is going to be additional tent with more showers.

How many athletes will compete in the Parapanamerican games? I can see those who use wheelchairs needing more space. This wouldn't be a problem if they had fewer competitors. Will the units have accessible showers? Extra-wide doorways? Geo Swan (talk) 00:54, 5 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Only 6,135 athletes will be competing at the Pan American Games (aprrox. 1100 athletes will live in satellite accommodations). 2,500 official (coaches) will also stay. Approximately 1,600 Parapan American Games athletes will compete.

"Athletes and NOC team officials will be accommodated in newly constructed permanent buildings, ranging in height from nine to 15 storeys. The buildings will contain a combination of apartments for three, four, five, six, nine or 10 beds. TO2015 is planning for a resident experience that will reflect an average athlete-to-bathroom ratio below 4:1." These are for the Pan Am Games. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 01:32, 5 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
