Today we recieved a letter from our good firend MIKE MITCHELL:
Dear Edmundas
It saddens me to read how NABBA constantly attack WFF organisation. NABBA was a very strong organisation and many good names have been associated with the past NABBA. For those who do not know Edmundas you are right. NABBA is only a group of friends (or so called friends) There is no official organisation, their is no constitution, Their are no books, minutes of meetings etc.when I organized the NABBA World and European Championships in Aberdeen some years ago ( and if I remember rightly was noted as the most well organised NABBA championships of all times) the support from NABBA UK and International was zero. When I asked for formal documentation to aid in sponsorship it did not exist. If it was not for the fact that I ran the WFF championship in Scotland on the same day (who had the documentation and gave me full support) I would never have attracted support whatsoever.
I feel sorry for NABBA many friends give many hours and financial support to ensure the organization continued, but sadly many like myself were defeated by the very few who continue to spill out the lies and not deal with the real truth.
I have no hard feelings towards NABBA and enjoyed my time with them and was fortunate to meet so many nice people, but when threatened with having to make a choice between NABBA and WFF, the choice was easy. The WFF was the ONLY Federation in my eyes that had a genuine interest in both the development of the sport and the athlete. Unlike NABBA I can say without doubt I have enjoyed every second of my time with a real organisation the WFF. Some may say this is propaganda and lies, well my answer is simple " As always I speak from the heart" and I will stand up and be counted as a man that is not frightened of speaking the truth. Unfortunately my health does not allow me to be as active as I would like with the organisation but my support comes from the bottom of the heart. I truly hope many more will see the light and support the World Fitness Federation
My Kind Regards
