No because that would obliterate the whole point of the game.

It's called paralympics though.

The able-bodied people - which undoubtedly contained some of the best athletes in the world - have already had their olympics. Let the disabled or otherwise less advantaged have their paralympics.

I fail to see the problem with that system.
