Eligible Impairments
Sport Class profile
Short Stature: Player must be older than 13 years of age. Players younger than 18 years old must prove their chromosomal disorder diagnosis related to short stature. The player must meet the criteria below and classification measurements will be completed at each competition until the age of 18.
For males: Maximum standing height 145cm, and Arm length 66cm, and Sum of standing height plus arm length 200cm.
For females: Maximum standing height 137cm, and Arm length 63cm, and Sum of standing height plus arm length 190cm.
Note: Maximum standing height is measured in standing position with bare foot against the wall. Arm length is measured from the acromion to the tip of the longest finger of the longest arm. The measure should be taken regardless of elbow contracture because the effective length of the arm is reduced by such an impairment.
