Australian competitors only?
Under the heading "Competitors", it states "Australian athletics competitors in this class include Jack Allamby, Nathaniel Baker, Evan O'Hanlon and Kate Ballinger." All well and good, but it's absurd to only have Australian competitors listed. I suggest that we remove this category unless/until we can list a broad sampling from a variety of nations.

Terminology
At no point does the article explain what "T38" means or how it relates to non-disabled athletics. Is "T38" a form of handicapping that attempts to somehow reconcile disabled athletic with regular athletic performance? The article does not make this clear.

The article does need a rewrite. You can fix it and make it more clear if you have the sources to do so. --
