SUMMARY:JUL 2026 U.S. Para Track & Field Calendar: Toyota USATF & Para Nationals (New York)
DESCRIPTION:Note that Athletes Without Limits provides Class T20 & F20 (Intellectual Impairment) National reviews for U.S. Paralympics for this event\, but is not otherwise involved in organizing USATF/U.S. Paralympics meets or team trips like we do for Virtus events. Interested athletes should complete eligibility with Athletes Without Limits\, but otherwise should register directly for Paralympic meets\, and travel with their home team/coach or individually to participate.\nTHE INFORMATION BELOW IS FOR ATHLETES WITH\nINTELLECTUAL DISABILITY (T20/F20 Class) \nHosted by USATF  and Sanctioned by World Para Track & Field \nEvent Name: 2026 Toyota USATF Outdoor & Para National Track & Field Championships \nEvent Date: July 23-26\, 2026 \nLocation: Icahn Stadium at Randall’s Island Park\, New York \nEvent Webpage: www.usatf.org/events (Search by ‘Para’ filter) \nRegistration: Athletes should register directly with the event organizers (individually or as part of their home team) using the link on the event’s website. Check the event page for deadlines. \nEligibility Criteria: Paralympic meets are open to athletes with a physical impairment\, visual impairment\, or Class T20/F20  intellectual impairment (Note that Class T20/F20 is only open to athletes with Virtus II1 (and Virtus II2 with dual II1 eligibility) — Virtus II3 are not eligible for Paralympics as they don’t meet the IQ and Adaptive Behavior criteria). \nTime Standards: There are time/entry standards for the four events open to athletes with T20/F20 classification for this event which are 400m\, 800m\, Shotput and Long Jump. Check the meet page/packet for details. (Other events with “Open” in their name do not have qualification time standards.) \nClassification Deadline for New T20 /F20 Athletes: Note that National classification ‘appointments’ offered at US Paralympics events are only for athletes with physical or visual impairment. New athletes with Intellectual Impairment should complete AWL-Virtus Eligibility Application and submit (along with photoID\, IQ and Adaptive Behavior assessments) to Athletes Without Limits at least 6 weeks prior to event registration deadline. AWL will inform U.S. Paralympics of new athletes who have completed National T20/F20 eligibility for Classification. \nCriteria for Intellectual Impairment T20 Class: Athletes with Intellectual Impairment should complete Athletes Without Limits Virtus Eligiblity application in lieu of a classification appointment. Athletes who meet the Virtus II1/Paralympic S14 eligibility criteria below are eligible to compete in Paralympic-sanctioned swim meets: \n\nIQ Assessment showing IQ of 75 or lower\,\nAdaptive Behavior Assessment showing significant limitation in at least one domain area\, and\nOnset before age 22\nA full report from a licensed psychologist with detailed scores\, results and analysis from the above assessments with a confirmed diagnosis of Intellectual Disability\, Mild\, Moderate or Severe.\n\nSpecial note to athletes with Autism: Athletes with Autism must have an IQ of 75 or lower and significant limitations in Adaptive Behavior (70 or lower in at least one domain) to be eligible for Paralympic T20/F20 Track & Field. This is different from AWL trips to Virtus-sanctioned meets\, which offer an additional competition group for those with Autism who don’t also have a diagnosis of Intellectual Disabilty (called Virtus II3 Autism Open) – so we encourage you to apply for eligibility for Virtus events! \nSpecial note to swimmers with Down Syndrome: The Paralympic S14 class is only open to athletes who meet the Virtus II1 Criteria for Intellectual Disability\, which is based on IQ and Adaptive Scores\, onset before 22 and a formal diagnosis of Intellectual Disability. This is different from AWL trips to Virtus-sanctioned meets which offer a separate competition group specifically for athletes with Down Syndrome (called Virtus II2). Therefore swimmers with Down Syndrome should apply for dual eligibility in the Virtus II1 group (based on their IQ and Adaptive Scores) in order to be classified for Paralympics\, and also the Virtus II2 group (which is based on a Cytogenetic Report showing Trisomy 21 or Translocation Down Syndrome) for Virtus events. \n
