No, you do not need to have your proposed classification submitted before you complete your season registration. We encourage athletes to complete their season registration as promptly as possible to mitigate any confusion as it relates to the classification process.

All athletes who plan to compete in the 2025 USA Wheelchair Football League season are required to have their team reviewer submit the required videos and forms at least 6 weeks prior to their team’s first tournament of the season.  While team reviewers should be responsible for reaching out to athletes, we encourage athletes to also discuss a time for testing with their team’s leadership to ensure they are able to compete in the 2025 season.

It is the responsibility of athletes, coaches and team support staff to understand the requirements of the classification rules prior to attending a USA Wheelchair Football League event.

We frequently reference the terms “Registered” and “Rostered” throughout the USAWFL season. They may sound interchangeable but they very different and hold separate, but important meaning.

“Registered”

A Registered individual is an athlete or team support staff who has completed their season registration & waivers, which is the baseline requirement for participation with the USAWFL. We encourage team’s to have anyone who has the potential of participating in the USAWFL regular & post season to complete their season registration, that way teams can have flexibility when planning & submitting their tournament roster.

As a league, it is important that we are able to keep track of who is planning on participating within the current USAWFL season. This allows us to ensure all members are accounted for, all needed information is captured, and all documents are completed.

“Rostered”

A Rostered individual has completed their registration and is designated to participate in a tournament or event. If an individual is not registered they cannot be rostered. A team’s roster may change for every tournament if the team needs to adjust their athletes and/or team support staff. All team must adhere to all tournament roster rules & regulations in the current USA Wheelchair Football League Rulebook when submitting their tournament rosters.

As a league, it is important that we are able to know exactly who will be attending a tournament. This information is crucial for ensuring tournaments are planed properly, accurate numbers are utilized, and appropriate safety protocols are in place.

Any athlete or team support staff  who needs to complete their season registration after July 31st, 2025 must submit a late registration request. This includes NEW and PREVIOUS USAWFL registrants/participants, see below for instructions. 

Step 1: Submit the Late Registration Request 

The athlete or team support staff needing to register must send an email directly to Tommy at Tshipeck@moveunitedsport.org. This email must contain the reasoning along with supporting documentation on why their 2025 season registration was unable to be completed during the registration window of April 1st, 2025 to July 31st, 2025.

Step 2: Move United Review & Notification of Approval or Denial

Move United will review the late registration request and send notification of the request has been approved or denied. This review process takes on average 3 business days from receipt of the late registration request.

• If Approved, the athlete or team support staff will receive further instructions to move forward completing their 2025 season registration.
  • These individuals still must adhere to all outlined tournament, roster, and classification deadlines & procedures
  • Individuals may be APPROVED to complete their 2025 season registration but still may be ineligible to participate in an upcoming USAWFL event due to the timing of the late registration request.
• If Denied, the athlete or team support staff will receive explanation supporting the decision and further instructions if applicable.
