About Sanctioned Competitions

Move United Sanctioned Competitions represent some of the best adaptive single and multi-sport competitive events in the United States and are sanctioned by both Move United and applicable National Governing Bodies (NGBs) for the sports being contested. This sanction represents a commitment to follow national and, when applicable, international rules and to provide a safe, positive environment for athletes and coaches, officials and volunteers, and spectators.

In 2024, there were 34 Sanctioned Competitions in 24 states that reached over 2,500 adaptive athletes of all ages and performance levels each year, including Paralympians and Wounded Warfighters. Move United Sanctioned Competitions are an integral part of Move United’s community-based adaptive sports movement, committed to leaving no one on the sidelines.
