About Sanctioned Competitions

Move United Sanctioned Competitions represent some of the best adaptive 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.

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. Find our 2022 annual report here.
