Lin Shan (Chinese: 林珊; pinyin: Lín Shān, born 2 March 1986[2]) is a Chinese retired goalball player. She won a silver medal in both the 2008 Summer Paralympics and the 2012 Summer Paralympics.[3]

Due to a hereditary disease, she has been blind since her youth. She attended Beijing Union University and was the only university student on the 2008 Paralympic team.[1][4]

Like her national teammates Fan Feifei, Wang Ruixue, and Ju Zhen, Fan started playing the sport under coach Wang Jinqin at the Weifang School of the Blind in Weifang, Shandong.[5]
