The 2012 World Deaf Athletics Championships (WDAC) will take place in Toronto from the 14th to the 21st of July 2012 at the University of Toronto's Varsity Stadium. The WDAC is a non-profit track & field meet which provides distinguished Deaf athletes with the chance to raise the bar at an international level. So far more than 350 athletes and over 160 team staff from approximately 30 different countries have registered to participate. Athletes will compete in 44 different events, 22 men's events and 22 women's events. What makes the WDAC different from a conventional track and field meet is that the communication, social, accessibility and cultural barriers are lifted for all participants involved.
