Sledge hockey classification is the classification process for people who play ice sledge hockey. The classification system is governed by the International Paralympic Committee Ice Sledge Hockey. ==Definition== People with cerebral palsy in classifications from CP3 to CP5 are covered by sledge hockey classifications. Unlike skiing, there is a sport specific approach to classification for hockey. It includes a medical examination. For wheelchair hockey, there is only one class. Competitors go through a classification test to determine if they are eligible. The Canadian Paralympic Committee says of sledge hockey, "To participate in IPC competitions and sanctioned events (i.e. Paralympic Winter Games), athletes must have an impairment of permanent nature in the lower part of the body of such a degree that it makes ordinary skating, and consequently ice hockey playing, impossible. Examples include amputation, spinal cord injury, joint immobility, cerebral palsy and leg shortening of at least 7cm and 'les autres.'" 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「Sledge hockey classification」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
