World referee seminar in Chisinau, June 22nd !
Our last World referee seminar´s 2022 in Wels, Austria, 2023 in Skofije, Slovenia and in 2024 Alicante, Spain appointed several female WKF referees with international licenses. Today we again have just 14 females worldwide with an international WKF referee license.
History has shown that nothing is set in stone.
As the world know – our next World referee seminar will be held in Chisinau, Moldova, June 22nd 2025, just before the
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.
Without valid WKF license you are not an official in our World Kickboxing Federation!!
Today WKF has more than 150 international licensed referees on 6 continents.
Of these, unfortunately, we only have just
14 (!) international licensed female officials

Like all knowledge, more and more strong female champions and athletes are fighting

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

It’s in your hands and
we just need
more female officials
