Sport Class profile

Males

Maximum standing height permitted is 145cm. The maximum arm length permitted is 66cm, measured with the Athlete lying supine, arm abducted to 90 degrees and the measure taken is from the acromion to the tip of the longest finger of the longest arm. The measure must be taken regardless of elbow contracture because the effective length of the arm is reduced by such an Impairment. This arm length is proportionate for a male of standing height 145cm. The sum of standing height + length of longest arm must be <= 200cm.

To be eligible for T41, male Athletes must meet all of the following criteria: standing height <=145cm; AND arm length <=66cm; AND sum of standing height plus arm length <=200cm.

Females

Maximum standing height permitted is 137cm. The maximum arm length permitted is 63cm, measured with the Athlete lying supine, arm abducted to 90 degrees and the measure taken is from the acromion to the tip of the longest finger of the longest arm. The measure must be taken regardless of elbow contracture because the effective length of the arm is reduced by such an Impairment. This arm length is proportionate for a female of standing height 137cm. The sum of standing height + length of longest arm must be <= 190cm.
