Para Armwrestling (WAF)
Verdict
Two competitors per match; Classifications: WAF-defined disability classes for ambulatory + seated athletes (broadly: WW1-WW4 wheelchair classes, AW1-AW2 ambulatory); Weight classes follow WAF individual schedule (with potential consolidated lighter divisions in Para)
Why people argue about this
People often assume that all Para Armwrestling matches are played in a single weight class across both ambulatory and seated classifications, which leads to misunderstandings about how officials handle different abilities within these divisions. The confusion arises because weight classes are based on individual WAF schedules rather than being consolidated for simplicity or convenience.
