Classification information & other resources

An athlete would seek classficiation if they wish to compete at either club, regional, state or national level.  Classification allows for athletes to compete in a fair environment by grouping them accoring to their classification.

The Associated and Catholic Colleges of WA (ACC) provide both classified (multi-class) and non-classified (inclusive) athletes, the opportunity to compete in the ACC Divisional Swimming, Athletics Cross Country carnivals.  Students compete alongside members of their interschool athletics team, within their own age/gender.  Please refer to the individual carnival Operations Manuals for more information regarding each event.

NOTE : ACC divisional carnivals are competitive events and Sports Coordinators should take careful consideration before nominating an inclusive athlete for these events.
