S14 (classification)

S14, SB14, SM14 are para-swimming classifications used for categorising swimmers based on their level of disability.

In 2003 the committee approved a plan which recommended the development of a universal classification code.

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.

[3] Swimmers who have competed in this class include Siobhan Paton,[4] Taylor Corry and Mitchell Kilduff of Australia.
