Main article: Athletics at the 2022 Commonwealth Games

There was a nominal total of 96 quota places available (in parasport events only) for athletics at the 2022 Commonwealth Games; 48 each for men and women.[1]

Rules

Each Commonwealth Games Association (CGA) may qualify up to three places per event, which equates to a maximum quota of thirty-six. Seven places per event are determined by the World Para Athletics (WPA) World Rankings (for performances between 31 December 2020 and 25 April 2022), with the last spot reserved for a Bipartite Invitation; all those who qualify may also enter other events provided the three-per-CGA limit is respected.

The events are open to sport classes as follows:

  • Men's 100 metres T12: T11/12
  • Men's 100 metres T38: T37/38
  • Men's 100 metres T47: T45–47
  • Men's 1500 metres T54: T53/54
  • Men's marathon T54: T53/54
  • Men's discus throw F44/64: F42–44/61–64
  • Women's 100 metres T34: T33/34
  • Women's 100 metres T38: T37/38
  • Women's 1500 metres T54: T53/54
  • Women's marathon T54: T53/54
  • Women's shot put F57: F55–57
  • Women's discus throw F44/64: F42–44/61–64

In addition, all those who qualify for the men's 100 metres T12 event are entitled to compete with a guide, which has no impact on quota allocation.
