TO ALL WAKO AFFILIATED NATIONS AND THEIR ATHLETES PARTICIPATING IN WAKO
CHAMPIONSHIPS

Requirements for participating in WAKO Championships

Since we know that various national federations notoriously allow their
fighters (or they dont pay enough attention) to participate in various
other kickboxing organizations, WAKO board, during the meeting held in
Budapest, made a unanimous decision about that issue as follows:

To compete in other international Championships besides WAKO will not be
allowed and tolerated any longer, starting from this year.

It is mandatory that from now on all fighters, coaches, officials and
referees, who are WAKO members stop competing in any other Kickboxing
events and competitions organised by other organisations than WAKO.
This includes world, continental and title fights in all disciplines
with all other bodies excluding WAKO. Failure to comply with this rule
will result in an automatic two years suspension from WAKO international
activity, from the date of his/her involvement with other kickboxing
bodies. Failure to notify WAKO of said involvement may result in a
three years suspension for the national federation they belong to.
