Early on in the sports history, 1 point players would use strapping to connect themselves to their chairs and get better balance and give some semblance of trunk movement. This technique led to players in other classes using strapping to improve their functionality, especially in regards to strapping their feet. During the 1990s, there was a push to ban tilting in wheelchair basketball. One of the major arguments against its use was that 1 and 2 point players could not execute this move. This ban occurred in 1997, despite American 2 point player Melvin Juette demonstrating that it was possible for lower point players to execute at the 1997 IWBF 5 Junior Championships in Toronto, Canada.Wheelchairs can jump!: a history of wheelchair basketball : tracing 65 years of extraordinary Paralympic and World Championship performances Labanowich Stan Thiboutot Armand 2011-01-01 Acanthus Publishing 9780984217397 Boston, MA. 792945375 English The tilting ban was lifted in 2006. In a push to increase participation the sport, people involved with the National Wheelchair Basketball Association have argued allowing able-bodied athletes to compete would help 1 and 2 point players because there would be a need to balance participation on the team because of the rules regarding maximum points on the floor.Hoop dreams on wheels: disability and the competitive wheelchair athlete Berger Ronald J. March 2009 Routledge 978-0-415-96509-5 141 History The original classification system for wheelchair basketball was a 3 class medical one managed by ISMGF. Players in this system were class 1. Following the move to the functional classification system in 1983, class 1 players continued to be class 1 players. The classification was created by the International Paralympic Committee and has roots in a 2003 attempt to address "the overall objective to support and co-ordinate the ongoing development of accurate, reliable, consistent and credible sport focused classification systems and their implementation."Paralympic Classification Today 22 April 2010 3 International Paralympic Committee In 2005 and 2006, there was an active effort by the National Wheelchair Basketball Association to try to move from a three player classification system to a four-point classification system like the one used by the International Wheelchair Basketball Federation.Hoop dreams on wheels: disability and the competitive wheelchair athlete Berger Ronald J. March 2009 Routledge 978-0-415-96509-5 148 For the 2016 Summer Paralympics in Rio, the International Paralympic Committee had a zero classification at the Games policy. This policy was put into place in 2014, with the goal of avoiding last minute changes in classes that would negatively impact athlete training preparations. All competitors needed to be internationally classified with their classification status confirmed prior to the Games, with exceptions to this policy being dealt with on a case-by-case basis.https://www.paralympic.org/sites/default/files/document/160404093217097_Classification+Guide+-+updated+version_0.pdf Rio 2016 Classification Guide March 2016 International Paralympic Committee International Paralympic Committee July 22, 2016 In case there was a need for classification or reclassification at the Games despite best efforts otherwise, wheelchair basketball classification was scheduled for September 4 to 6 at Carioca Arena 1.

In this variant, the equivalent to one point players would be red band head players. These players are "functional are only mm. Biceps, small pectorals, delta and hand extensor. Missing are mm. triceps, hand flexion and all finger functions. They represent the most severe handicapped group of players." Getting classified Wheelchair basketball players who are going to compete at the 2012 Summer Paralympics in this classification need to have their classification be in compliance with the system organized by the IWBF, and their status listed as "review" or "confirmed".http://www.paralympic.org/export/sites/default/Paralympic_Games/London_2012/Qualification_Criteria/2011_02_WC_Basketball_London_2012_PG_Qualification_Criteria_Final_Update.pdf International Paralympic Committee 18 November 2011 Wheelchair Basketball: LONDON 2012 PARALYMPIC GAMES dead https://web.archive.org/web/20110727164821/http://www.paralympic.org/export/sites/default/Paralympic_Games/London_2012/Qualification_Criteria/2011_02_WC_Basketball_London_2012_PG_Qualification_Criteria_Final_Update.pdf 27 July 2011 In Australia, wheelchair basketball players and other disability athletes are generally classified after they have been assessed based on medical, visual or cognitive testing, after a demonstration of their ability to play their sport, and the classifiers watching the player during competitive play.http://www.paralympic.org.au/classification 18 November 2011 Australian Paralympic Committee Sydney, Australia Understanding Classification Once a player is classified, it is very hard to be classified into a different classification. Players have been known to have issues with classification because some players play down their abilities during the classification process. At the same time, as players improve at the game, movements become regular and their skill level improves. This can make it appear like their classification was incorrect.
