IPPA PARA PICKLEBALL CLASS ALLOCATION

 A player's Sport Class is determined based on their functional capacity to perform the essential skills required to play Para Pickleball:

This means that classification is not solely based on the athlete’s medical diagnosis or type of impairment, but rather on how their impairment impacts their ability to move, balance, react, and perform sport-specific actions, such as:

1.Serving and returning the ball
2.Court movement and positioning
3. Paddle control and coordination
4.Reaction time and reach

 This functional approach ensures that athletes compete against others with comparable levels of ability, creating a fair and competitive environment.
