The WAKO Calendar for 2025 has been launched and clubs/members of national federations are obliged to learn all changes in order to avoid non-compliance with the rules, sanctions and inconvenience at upcoming competitions due to lack of information.
On this occasion, we would like to emphasize again that:
- All competitions have to be conducted via the Sport Data system, and all international competitions must be published in the WAKO Calendar.
- As you can see, the attached calendar has several amended changes, so that the competitions and championships from which the results are scored for the WAKO Rank List (Q mark) are specially marked. Any change compared to the previous version (new competition, or addition or change of data for a competition) is marked with a red triangle (Δ).
- We once again call on all organizers of international competitions, camps and seminars to timely submit competition data (according to the information requested in the calendar, to submit invitation brochures, posters and flyers, that will be published and promoted on the WAKO Europe web page and on WAKO Europe social media. Forms are in attachment.
- Unfortunately, there are still a certain number of organizers who do not conduct competitions via the Sport Data system or publish international competitions in the WAKO calendar. It is a subject to sanction organizers and national federations who do not respect this decision.
We remind you that:
- You can find all WAKO rules and forms on the official WAKO website www.wako.sport/ – under section LEGAL
