Open
Regional events, several thousand athletes, all seven divisions. Anyone can enter — no qualifying time, no prior result. This is where almost everyone starts.
Season 2026 / 27
The calendar
Chapter sessions are weekly and free. Events are the times the chapters come together — same eight stations, bigger room. Host cities rotate across all eight regions by design, so the season never orbits one continent.
Event tiers
Three levels, one route through
There is no invitation list and no wildcard. Every athlete on the World Championship floor got there through a published time from an Open or a Major.
Major
Flagship city events with full broadcast and Pro fields. Open divisions still run alongside — the same floor, the same day, the same clock.
World Championship
One event a year, rotating continent by continent. Qualification is by ranked time in your division, including every adaptive category.
Access
A ticket price is not a filter
Events cost money to run, so events have tickets. But an entry fee decides who can afford a race — it should never decide who belongs in the community. So we build the way around it into every event, before tickets go on sale.
10% funded places, every event
Held back at every Open and Major. Requested through your chapter lead, with no means test and no explanation required.
Regional pricing
Entry is indexed to local income, not converted from a single currency. A ticket in Nairobi is priced for Nairobi.
Travel grants for qualifiers
If you qualify for the World Championship and cannot afford to get there, the grant fund exists for exactly that. Qualifying is the only criterion.
Youth always free
Every event, every country, no exceptions.
