As a recognised IF, WFDF has agreed to the IPC Medical Code, IPC Classification Code and World Anti-Doping Code, and its classification system is constantly being updated and improved to make competition as fair as possible.
The IPC has agreed to extend its continuous support to helping further develop disc sports as para-sports in the coming years.
