WKF BELARUS president Mr. Sergey KHMELKOV and Supervisor for GUS Mr. Ivan DERKACHENKO announce next great WKF event near Minsk.

Preparations are underway for the Belarusian Kickboxing Championship WKF April 16-19, 2025 in Minsk, at the Republican Olympic Training Center “Staiki”.

Many Champions, managers and promoters in Germany are interested in our WKF and want to get a chance to fight for WKF sanctioned titles.

Many people are disappointed from fake so called “World federations” in Germany, but just existing in internet only or in perhaps 3 European countries. No value, no events, no service, no real World ranking !

More and more promoter and top organizer in Germany want to cooperate with WKF, because:

“WKF – We are the real global player”

As everybody know, the next European Championship is coming up in June 22nd to 29th  2025.

To avoid any misunderstandings on the mat or Tatami, we would like to ask you kindly one more time to read carefully the WKF rule book for forms.

Today we have 6 categories for forms. Please register always your national team for FORMS referees as well !

To see what is a traditional form, have a look here in the two lists of forms.

What are the dress codes? When does the timer start e.g. for traditional forms with and without weapons ?

What is the time limit in creative forms or soft style forms ???

Any traditional form may be adapted, it is still a traditional form. Also compiled, with parts of existing forms, using traditional techniques is permitted.

All traditional Forms must be using traditional moves only.

Any traditional Form / Kata / Pommse / Hyong / Taolu etc. must resemble a traditional work, an adaptation will be acceptable if added moves are of a traditional nature.

Any so called “allstyle” form is not a traditional one!

Once again I kindly ask you read the rule book for forms – available in 4 languages! There you will find exactly what is a traditional form, where is a time limit, what is a creative form and so on.

I want to thank you for co-operation and wish you a successful European Championship in 2025 in Moldova.

Soon a representative of the FKR will also be appointed to the position of the representative of the Russian Federation in the IRC – International Rules Committee.

 

The previous representative of the WKF in the territory of the Russian Federation Gerasimov M.V. is removed from the previously held position and is relieved of all rights and obligations.

WKF CEO and World President Fritz EXENBERGER emphasized that without the Russian team no international federation can consider itself leading, because athletes from Russia are few of the strongest in the world.
