1.officially appointed group of the International secretaries (including a professional photographer) must work at any official contest
2.at least 5 Internationally Certified Judges must work at any official contest. International Judges Certificates are given to any National Judge after attending the annual International Judges Seminar.
3.The organizer of any official contest must solve the question of covering expenses of International secretaries and International judges that must be present at a definite official event

W.F.F. - W.B.B.F. INTERNATIONAL OFFICIAL CONTESTS
In difference to most so called „International bodybuilding federations“ the W.F.F. - W.B.B.F. International does it‘s best to work as any official federation of any sport. „various „festivals“, „weekends“, „classics“, „nights of champions“, „variety shows“ never were W.F.F. - W.B.B.F. official contests as it is among other „federations“.
The 50 years lasting history of the W.F.F. - W.B.B.F. federation is highly connected with „Amber Prix International“ which served as the unofficial World Championship of over 20 socialist countries for nearly 30 years. It was recognized by the Ministry of Sport of the U.S.S.R. (1989). This is the reason the „Amber Prix International“ is included to the W.F.F. - W.B.B.F. official contests. Also bodybuilding is not an Olympic kind of sport. This is the reason that the W.F.F. - W.B.B.F. counts the status of the „Universe“ contest equal to the World Championship.
In 2024 about 60 contests are organized under the W.F.F. - W.B.B.F. name in various countries - Europe, America and Asia.
