Disability sports classification groups athletes with disabilities according to the type and severity of impairments, so that each athlete competes in a fair environment against competitors with comparable impairments. The International Paralympic Committee (IPC) classification scheme in particular has roots in a 2003 attempt to address "the overall objective to support and co-ordinate the ongoing development of accurate, reliable, consistent and credible sport focused classification systems and their implementation." ==Alpine and nordic skiing== Alpine skiing classification is undertaken by the IPC. The classifications are generally by visual acuity and whether they "sit ski" or "stand ski". *LW1-9: standing skiers * *LW1-4 is for skiers with leg impairments * *LW5/7 and LW6/8 are for skiers with arm impairments * *LW9 is for skiers with impairments to the arms and legs *LW10-12: sitting skiers *SB1-3: visually impaired skiers 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Disability sport classification」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
