Two competitors per match (1-on-1); Weight classes inherit from WAF (with optional CAWF-specific adjustments for junior development categories); Age categories: Sub-Junior, Junior, Senior, Masters, Grand Masters; Para and Open divisions
Why people argue about this
People often assume that all armwrestling matches must have two competitors from the same weight class, which is why they argue; however, the official ruling allows for optional CAWF adjustments for junior development categories, meaning matches can involve players from different classes if it benefits young or smaller competitors.
