WFF-WBBF WORLD FEDERATION EXECUTIVE COUNCIL. STRATEGIC PLANS FOR THE FUTURE.

The World WFF-WBBF Federation, whose history dates back to 1968, currently brings together athletes and national sports organizations from 141 countries worldwide. Throughout its decades of activity, the Federation has established itself on the international sports arena as a pioneer in introducing new sports disciplines and innovative competition formats.

The Federation's continuous commitment to expanding sporting opportunities is reflected in its rich history. WFF-WBBF has made significant contributions to the promotion and development of Classic Bodybuilding, the children's sports programme “Fit-Kids,” sports for athletes with disabilities, the Fitness Model category, and numerous other sporting disciplines.

In recent years, the programme of international competitions has been expanded to include a variety of new disciplines, such as aerial acrobatics, Pole Dance, Kangoo Dance, step aerobics, martial arts, mini-trampoline disciplines, and Sports Model Fitness.

In 2026, WFF-WBBF international competitions held in Klaipėda and Nida attracted considerable international interest, with approximately 300 athletes from various countries participating in each event. Even greater international participation and activity are anticipated in 2027.

On November 13, 2026, members of the Executive Council of the World WFF-WBBF Federation will convene in Klaipėda, Lithuania.

The meeting agenda will address a number of important strategic issues concerning the further development of the Federation and the future of international sport.

Particular attention will be devoted to a remarkable anniversary in international sports history: the 60th anniversary of the “Amber Prix International” tournament (“Gintarinis prizas,” “Янтарный приз”), scheduled to take place in Klaipėda on May 7–9, 2027.

To commemorate this historic anniversary, a special historical book is being prepared for publication in several languages. The manuscript has already been completed, and the book is currently undergoing layout and design.

The anniversary event in Klaipėda is expected to welcome not only athletes but also distinguished and highly respected sports personalities from various countries around the world, representatives of international sports organizations, and politicians.
