The parasport classification system determines which athletes are eligible to compete in a parasport and how athletes are grouped together for competition by the degree of activity limitation resulting from the impairment. Thus, athletes can compete in equal conditions, avoiding the athletes with lower impairment reach the best results. To know more about parasport classification go to IPC (INTERNATIONAL PARALYMPIC COMMITTEE).
