A Year Ahead Of LA28 Paralympics, IPC Announces Second Call For Applications In Classification
Offered under the IPC’s Sport for Mobility programme, this is the second time the IPC has made grant funding available for classification research in the last nine months. Funding opportunities are available for IPC Members and Recognised International Federations, in collaboration with the scientific community. The applications will be open until May 31, 2026.
Classification is the cornerstone of Para sport; it determines athlete eligibility criteria in sport and how athletes are grouped together for competition. Research outcomes conducted under this initiative are thus expected to benefit all IPC members and athletes by enhancing the integrity, credibility, and fairness of Para sports’ classification and competition.
