WKF EUROPE needs more female officials – World Kickboxing Federation Europe

WKF HEAD OFFICE work very hard in cooperation with our IRC- “International rules committee” to train our international officials and referees, to answer protests and requests for the competition rules and to develop our various WKF rules.

History has shown nothing is set in stone!

Our last World referee seminar´s 2022 in Wels, Austria, 2023 in Skofije, Slovenia and in Alicante, Spain 2024 appointed several new female WKF referees with international licenses.

Valid also for BOXING and BARE KNUCKLE division and for MMA!

Today we again have 14 female officials worldwide with an international WKF referee license.

The past has shown that we need more officially WKF licensed ladies in Europe and World wide.

To get the WKF license or to extend existing one, the next option is 2025 World referee Seminar in Chisinau, Moldova, June 22nd, invitation is HERE.

For the World Championships 2026 in Cartagena. Colombia, we need more European Referees, male and female!

The next but one World referee seminar will be held now in autumn 2026, the weekend just before the World Championships 2026 in Cartagena, Colombia.

As the world knows, our WKF was celebrating 60 years of existence of our last WKF World Championships in Spain in 2024.

We expect in Chisinau 2025 again more than 1.000 Champions, man and women. Many TOP countries returned to our WKF ! Without valid WKF license – without exception – you are not an official in our World Kickboxing Federation!!

Today WKF has more than 150 international licensed referees on 6 continents. Like all knowledge, more and more strong female champions and athletes are fighting

Of these today unfortunately, we only have

14 WORLD CLASS female officials

Our executive board therefore emphatically requests all WKF country presidents to send more female referees to Chisinau, the next seminar in Moldova on June 22nd 2025.
