sports</div> Disability sports classification is a system that allows for fair competition between people with different types of disabilities. Historically, the process has been overseen by 2 groups: specific disability type sport organizations that cover multiple sports, and specific sport organizations that cover multiple disability types including amputations, cerebral palsy, deafness, intellectual impairments, les autres and short stature, vision impairments, spinal cord injuries, and other disabilities not covered by these groups. Within specific disability types, some of the major organizations have been: CPISRA for cerebral palsy and head injuries, ISMWSF for spinal cord injuries, ISOD for orthopaedic conditions and amputees, INAS for people with intellectual disabilities, and IBSA for blind and vision impaired athletes. Amputee sports classification is a disability specific sport classification used for disability sports to facilitate fair competition among people with different types of amputations. This classification was set up by <a href="/wiki/International_Sports_Organization_for_the_Disabled" class="mw-redirect" title="International Sports Organization for the Disabled">International Sports Organization for the Disabled</a> (ISOD), and is currently managed by IWAS who ISOD merged with in 2005. Several sports have sport specific governing bodies managing classification for amputee sportspeople. The classes for ISOD's amputee sports classification system are <a href="/wiki/A1_(classification)" title="A1 (classification)">A1</a>, <a href="/wiki/A2_(classification)" title="A2 (classification)">A2</a>, <a href="/wiki/A3_(classification)" title="A3 (classification)">A3</a>, <a href="/wiki/A4_(classification)" title="A4 (classification)">A4</a>, <a href="/wiki/A5_(classification)" title="A5 (classification)">A5</a>, <a href="/wiki/A6_(classification)" title="A6 (classification)">A6</a>, <a href="/wiki/A7_(classification)" title="A7 (classification)">A7</a>, <a href="/wiki/A8_(classification)" title="A8 (classification)">A8</a> and <a href="/wiki/A9_(classification)" title="A9 (classification)">A9</a>. The first four are for people with lower limb amputations. A5 through A8 are for people with upper limb amputations. Cerebral palsy sport classification is a classification system used by sports that include people with <a href="/wiki/Cerebral_palsy" title="Cerebral palsy">cerebral palsy</a> (CP) with different degrees of severity to compete fairly against each other and against others with different types of disabilities. In general, <a href="/wiki/Cerebral_Palsy-International_Sports_and_Recreation_Association" class="mw-redirect" title="Cerebral Palsy-International Sports and Recreation Association">Cerebral Palsy-International Sports and Recreation Association</a> (CP-ISRA) serves as the body in charge of classification for cerebral palsy sport, though some sports have their own classification systems which apply to CP sportspeople. The classification system developed by the CP-ISRA includes eight classes: <a href="/wiki/CP1_(classification)" title="CP1 (classification)">CP1</a>, <a href="/wiki/CP2_(classification)" title="CP2 (classification)">CP2</a>, <a href="/wiki/CP3_(classification)" title="CP3 (classification)">CP3</a>, <a href="/wiki/CP4_(classification)" title="CP4 (classification)">CP4</a>, <a href="/wiki/CP5_(classification)" title="CP5 (classification)">CP5</a>, <a href="/wiki/CP6_(classification)" title="CP6 (classification)">CP6</a>, <a href="/wiki/CP7_(classification)" title="CP7 (classification)">CP7</a> and <a href="/wiki/CP8_(classification)" title="CP8 (classification)">CP8</a>. These classes can be generally grouped into upper wheelchair, wheelchair and ambulatory classes. CP1 is the class for upper wheelchair, while CP2, CP3 and CP4 are general wheelchair classes. CP5, CP6, CP7 and CP8 are ambulatory classes. The Les Autres class of disabilities generally covers two classes. These are people with short stature and people with impaired passive range of movement. The latter is sometimes referred to as PROM. There are a number of sports open to people who fit into Les Autres classes, though their eligibility often depends on if they have short stature or PROM. Historically, disability sports classification has not been open specifically to people with transplants, diabetics and epileptics. This is because disabilities need to be permanent in nature. Classification for disability sports generally has three or four steps. The first step is generally a medical assessment. The second is generally a functional assessment. This may involve two parts: first observing sportspeople in training and then involving observing sportspeople in competition. There are a number of people involved in this process beyond the sportsperson including individual classifiers, medical classifiers, technical classifiers, a chief classifier, a head of classification, a classification panel and a classification committee. <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Purpose">Purpose</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Disability_sport_classification&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Purpose">edit</a>]</div> The purpose of classification in disability sport is to allow fair competition between people with different types of disabilities.<a href="#cite_note-International_Bowls_for_the_Disabled-1">[1]</a> The International Paralympic Committee (IPC) sees its role in developing classification as contributing "to sporting excellence for all Athletes and sports in the Paralympic Movement, [and] providing equitable competition".<a href="#cite_note-International_Paralympic_Committee-2007-2">[2]</a> It sees the purpose of classification as "provid[ing] a structure for Competition. Classification is undertaken to ensure that an Athlete’s impairment is relevant to sport performance, and to ensure that the Athlete competes equitably with other Athletes."<a href="#cite_note-International_Paralympic_Committee-2007-2">[2]</a> According to the IPC, the classification process serves two roles. The first is to determine who is eligible and the second is to group sportspeople for the purpose of competition.<a href="#cite_note-International_Paralympic_Committee-2007-2">[2]</a> The eligibility minimum is an impairment that limits the sportsperson's ability to participate in an activity.<a href="#cite_note-International_Paralympic_Committee-2007-2">[2]</a> The purpose of disability sport classification is similar to selective classification used in some sports. Such selective criteria include sex, gender, age, weight or size. Selective classification is based on variables that are believed to be predictive of performance, with the goal of minimizing the effect of these variables on outcome even as there is a great range in terms of performance inside these classifications based on other variables. Classification for disability sport is generally not a performance based system where players are grouped based on skill level. These systems include different level leagues in association football and use of a handicap in golf.<a href="#cite_note-IPC_Chapter_4.4-3">[3]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Disability_sport_classification&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: History">edit</a>]</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="1940s">1940s</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Disability_sport_classification&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: 1940s">edit</a>]</div> Ludwig Guttmann at the Stoke Mandeville Hospital began experimenting with spinal cord injury sport classification systems during the 1940s using a medical based system.<a href="#cite_note-IPC_Chapter_4.4-3">[3]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="1950s">1950s</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Disability_sport_classification&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: 1950s">edit</a>]</div> The classification for spinal cord injury related sports system was developed by International Stoke Mandeville Wheelchair Sports Federation (ISMWSF),<a href="#cite_note-KOCCA-4">[4]</a> with the first system having been created in 1952 by Ludwig Guttmann at the Stoke Mandeville Hospital. This system was published in the Handbook of Rules, which was distributed to people involved with paraplegic sport at the time including coaches, doctors and physiotherapists in various countries. At the time, this classification system was a medical classification.<a href="#cite_note-Int'l_Wheelchair_&_Amputee_Sports_Federation-3-5">[5]</a> The early history of amputee sport had concurrent histories, with European and American amputee sports developing during the 1950s and 1960s largely independent of each other. In Europe, unilateral and bilateral lower limb amputees participated in sports using prosthetic limbs. In the United States, these types of amputees participated in wheelchair sports instead.<a href="#cite_note-DeLisa-2005-6">[6]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="1960s">1960s</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Disability_sport_classification&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: 1960s">edit</a>]</div> <a href="/wiki/International_Sports_Organization_for_the_Disabled" class="mw-redirect" title="International Sports Organization for the Disabled">International Sports Organization for the Disabled</a> (ISOD) was created in 1964, and created the first formalized system of classification to facilitate organized sporting competition between people with different types of amputations.

During this period, people had strong feelings both ways but few practical changes were made to existing classification systems.<a href="#cite_note-IPC_Chapter_4.4-3">[3]</a> Adaptive rowing was taking place in France by 1971, with two classes of rowers initially participating: people with visual disabilities and people recovering from polio. People recovering from polio in France used boats with pontoons in order to increase their stability. Other changes were made to the boat with the development of a hinge-system to prevent rowers from tiring as easily. Blind rowers used the same boats during the 1970s and 1980s as their able-bodied counterparts but were guided on the course by a referee.<a href="#cite_note-adaptiverowingsymposium-18-8">[8]</a> Blind rowers were also encouraged to be in boats with sighted rowers, with the blind rowers serving as the stroke and the cox paying special attention to help the blinder rower. Classification was not something developed in France in this era as there was a focus on integrating rowers into the regular rowing community.<a href="#cite_note-adaptiverowingsymposium-19-9">[9]</a> In 1976, the total number of amputee classes was reduced to twelve ahead of the <a href="/wiki/1976_Summer_Paralympics" title="1976 Summer Paralympics">1976 Paralympic Games</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Pasquina-2009-7">[7]</a><a href="#cite_note-Hassani_et_al_2015-10">[10]</a> Adaptive rowing in the Netherlands began in 1979 with the founding of <a href="/w/index.php?title=Stichting_Roeivalidatie&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Stichting Roeivalidatie (page does not exist)">Stichting Roeivalidatie</a>. There was not an emphasis on classification early on, but rather in integrating adaptive rowing with regular rowing inside of rowing clubs.

Early experiments with this type of classification system in basketball began during the 1980s, with the first demonstration of the system used at the 1983 Gold Cup Championships. At the time, there were four classes for the sport.<a href="#cite_note-Labanowich-2011-12">[12]</a><a href="#cite_note-disabilitysport-122-13">[13]</a> The competition demonstrated that ISMGF medical classifiers had issues with correctly placing players into classes that best represented their ability.

The ISMGF was opposed in some measure to fully moving to a functional classification system for the sport. This conflict would not officially resolve itself until 1986, when the United States men and women threatened to boycott major tournaments unless the functional system was fully implemented.<a href="#cite_note-Labanowich-2011-12">[12]</a> People with cerebral palsy were first included at the <a href="/wiki/1980_Summer_Paralympics" title="1980 Summer Paralympics">Paralympic Games</a> in 1980 in Arnhem, the Netherlands.<a href="#cite_note-Clair-2013-15">[15]</a><a href="#cite_note-Brittain-2016-16">[16]</a> While four classes were in existence at the time, only the two highest functioning classes were included on the program.

People with cerebral palsy or non-progressive brain damage were eligible for classification by them. The organisation also dealt with classification for people with similar impairments. For their classification system, people with <a href="/wiki/Spina_bifida" title="Spina bifida">spina bifida</a> were not eligible unless they had medical evidence of loco-motor dysfunction.

Many rowers also competed against their able-bodied counterparts during this period.<a href="#cite_note-adaptiverowingsymposium-16-28">[28]</a> The first FISA recognised adaptive rowing World Cup event took place in 1991 and held in the Netherlands.<a href="#cite_note-adaptiverowingsymposium-5-29">[29]</a> By 1991, an international classification system was attempting to be developed for adaptive rowing.<a href="#cite_note-adaptiverowingsymposium-21-30">[30]</a> These classes were: Q1: Laesion at C4-C6, Q2: C7-T1, P1: T2-T9, P2: T10-L4, A1: A single amputation, A2: A double amputation and A3: Respiratory problems.<a href="#cite_note-adaptiverowingsymposium-21-30">[30]</a> While this was nominally a functional classification system, there was a lot of discussion about it as people did not agree on its implementation and it was not universally used.<a href="#cite_note-adaptiverowingsymposium-22-31">[31]</a> At the same time that this was going on, adaptive rowing was also debating the inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities in their sport.<a href="#cite_note-adaptiverowingsymposium-22-31">[31]</a> In 1992, the International Paralympic Committee formally took control of governance for disability sport and oversaw the classification systems as part of a review for any sport seeking IPC recognition.<a href="#cite_note-disabilitysport-43-32">[32]</a> In 1992, ahead of the Barcelona hosted Paralympics, the amputee sport classification system again was changed with the total number of classes reduced to the nine that currently exist today.<a href="#cite_note-Pasquina-2009-7">[7]</a><a href="#cite_note-Blaze_Sports-2012-33">[33]</a> Despite this, sometimes classes with different levels of performances would compete against each other in the same event for a medal at the Paralympic level.<a href="#cite_note-Tweedy2002-27">[27]</a> Small changes for amputee sport classification were formalized in 1993.<a href="#cite_note-Tweedy2002-27">[27]</a> Wheelchair rugby had been governed by IWAS since 1992, close to the sport's inception. IWAS had also managed the classification side of the sport.<a href="#cite_note-Int'l_Wheelchair_&_Amputee_Sports_Federation-4-34">[34]</a> The debate about inclusion of competitors into able-bodied competitions was seen by some disability sport advocates like Horst Strokhkendl as a hindrance to the development of an independent classification system not based on the rules for able-bodied sport. These efforts ended by 1993 as the <a href="/wiki/International_Paralympic_Committee" title="International Paralympic Committee">International Paralympic Committee</a> tried to carve out its own identity and largely ceased efforts for inclusion of disability sport on the Olympic programme.<a href="#cite_note-newhorizongs-290-35">[35]</a> The Games were the first ones where basketball players of different types of disabilities competed against each other, basketball players had a guaranteed right to appeal their classification.<a href="#cite_note-guidetobarcelona-36">[36]</a> The 1996 Summer Paralympics in Atlanta were the first ones where swimming was fully integrated based on functional disability, with classification no longer separated into classes based on the four disability types of vision impaired, cerebral palsy, amputee, and wheelchair sport. Countries no longer had multiple national swimming teams based on disability type but instead had one mixed disability national team.<a href="#cite_note-Clair-2013-15">[15]</a> At the end of 1996, the CP-ISRA had 22 international classifiers.<a href="#cite_note-37">[37]</a> The first classification rules for table tennis published by the International Table Tennis Federation were published in September 1996.<a href="#cite_note-38">[38]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="2000s">2000s</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Disability_sport_classification&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: 2000s">edit</a>]</div> Following the 2000 Summer Paralympics, there was a push in the wider disability sport community to move away from disability specific classification systems to a more unified classification system that incorporated multiple disability types. By 2000, swimming, table tennis, and equestrian had already done that with amputees being given sport specific classifications for these sports. The desire was to increase the number of sports doing that integration.<a href="#cite_note-Tweedy2002-27">[27]</a> Partially because of issues in objectively identifying functionality that plagued the post Barcelona Games, the IPC unveiled plans to develop a new classification system in 2003.<a href="#cite_note-Vanlandewijck-2016-39">[39]</a> This classification system went into effect in 2007, with standards based around identifying impaired strength, limb deficiency, leg length differences, and stature. It also included ways to assess vision impairment and intellectual impairment.<a href="#cite_note-Vanlandewijck-2016-39">[39]</a> Governance for wheelchair and amputee sport classification was taken over by IWAS following the 2005 merger of ISMWSF and ISOD.<a href="#cite_note-KOCCA-4">[4]</a> In 2009, IPC Athletics classification rules were changed for athletics as a result of recommendations that were approved by the board.

By the early 1970s, it was formalized with 27 different classes. This was reduced to 12 in 1976, and then down to 9 in 1992 ahead of the Barcelona Paralympics. By the 1990s, a number of sports had developed their own classification systems that in some cases were not compatible with the ISOD system. This included swimming, table tennis and equestrian as they tried to integrate multiple types of disabilities in their sports. Amputee sportspeople have specific challenges that different from other types of disability sportspeople.<a href="#cite_note-DeLisa-2005-6">[6]</a><a href="#cite_note-Pasquina-2009-7">[7]</a><a href="#cite_note-Hassani_et_al_2015-10">[10]</a><a href="#cite_note-Tweedy2002-27">[27]</a> The classes for ISOD's amputee sports classification system are A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A8 and A9. The first four are for people with lower limb amputations. A5 through A8 are for people with upper limb amputations. A9 is for people with combinations of upper and lower limb amputations. The classification system is largely medical, and generally has four stages. The first is a medical examination. The second is observation at practice or training. The third is observation during competition. The final is being put into a classification group. There is some variance to this based on sport specific needs.<a href="#cite_note-DeLisa-2005-6">[6]</a><a href="#cite_note-Pasquina-2009-7">[7]</a><a href="#cite_note-Hassani_et_al_2015-10">[10]</a><a href="#cite_note-64">[64]</a> <table class="wikitable sortable"> <tbody><tr> <th>Class </th> <th>Descriptions </th> <th>Abbr </th> <th>Athletics </th> <th>Cycling </th> <th>Skiing </th> <th>Swimming </th> <th>Comparable classifications in other sports </th> <th>Ref </th></tr> <tr> <td>A1 </td> <td>Bilateral above the knee lower limb amputations </td> <td>A/K </td> <td>T54, F56, F57, F58 </td> <td><a href="/wiki/LC4_(classification)" title="LC4 (classification)">LC4</a> </td> <td><a href="/wiki/LW1_(classification)" title="LW1 (classification)">LW1</a>, LW12.2 </td> <td><a href="/wiki/S4_(classification)" title="S4 (classification)">S</a>4, S5, S6 </td> <td>Badminton: W3.

On the Paralympic level, this also extends to people with disabilities related to tactile sensation, impaired thermoregulatory and cardiac function. Some of this is because while these may affect sport performance, they are not covered by the culture of the Paralympic Movement.<a href="#cite_note-IPC_Chapter_4.4-3">[3]</a> Some competitions are open to people with these disability types. Special classifications may be used to allow them to compete in some events.<a href="#cite_note-Queensland_Sport-65">[65]</a> Some sports had classifications for people with these types of disabilities, but phased them out.

Medical classification for wheelchair sport can consist of medical records being sent to medical classifiers at the international sports federation. The sportsperson's physician may be asked to provide extensive medical information including medical diagnosis and any loss of function related to their condition. This includes if the condition is progressive or stable, if it is an acquired or congenital condition. It may include a request for information on any future anticipated medical care. It may also include a request for any medications the person is taking.

These multiple types are only disability types covered by the classification rules. For example, if a person applying is blind, is deaf and has an intellectual disability and is seeking classification for a sport for the blind, they will not require experts for intellectual disabilities or deafness as these disabilities are not generally covered by the classification for those sports.<a href="#cite_note-International_Paralympic_Committee-2013-144">[144]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading5"><h5 id="Cerebral_palsy_sports">Cerebral palsy sports</h5>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Disability_sport_classification&action=edit&section=26" title="Edit section: Cerebral palsy sports">edit</a>]</div> One of the standard means of assessing functional classification is the bench test, which is used in swimming, lawn bowls and wheelchair fencing.<a href="#cite_note-International_Disabled_Bowls-141">[141]</a><a href="#cite_note-Swimming_Australia-140">[140]</a><a href="#cite_note-IWF_Classification_Rules-25">[25]</a> Using the Adapted Research Council (MRC) measurements, muscle strength is tested using the bench press for a variety of disabilities a muscle being assessed on a scale of 1 to 5 for people with cerebral palsy and other issues with muscle spasticity.
