THIS IS THE SITUATION TODAY
We are opening a new page of the sport life. As it was before the WFF (World Fitness Federation) and the WBBF (World Bodybuilding Federation) remain the sole officially registered by law International No Profit Social Sport Organizations representing bodybuilding and fitness World Wide.
The year of 2009 was very important for the International Sport. We see a number of new unofficial not registered bodybuilding and fitness structures, that name themselves as “international federations, associations”. That gives the official sport even more misunderstandings.
Last year the real international sport giants BEN WEIDER (Canada) and IVAN DUNBAR (UK) passed away. Inside the private commercial company of Ben Weider, named IFBB (International Federation of Body Builders) which was presented in public as “international sport federation”, started secret fight for the property. A group of people headed by Spanish RAFAEL SANTONJA secretly from others and using false documents took power in the private company of IFBB. Many IFBB members were angry of this and inside fighting ended by splitting IFBB in two parts. IFBB lower Austrian ALEX BAUER published juridical documents of IFBB that were sent to the IOC (International Olympic Committee) and to the IOC National Divisions. At the same time another part of the IFBB officials asked the WFF-WBBF International to publish these documents on the International Web www.wff.lt forum (topic „EFBB/IFBB illegal financial deals“). The sport world finally received documents proving that the IFBB is not a sport federation and it has never been. It is a private commercial company. Due to the IFBB inside war the new International Structure (IFBB-2) was born. It was led by the former President IFBB Asia Sheikh OSAMA AL SHAFAR (United Arab Emirates) and the former Vice President IFBB PAUL CHUA (Singapore).
After the long lasting President of the UK sport public club NABBA (National Amateur Body Building Association) IVAN DUNBAD passed away the unknown for the International Sport society Australian took the leadership of the public club of NABBA. And that made the situation inside NABBA no better.
Commercial supplement trading company of French FABIAN DE BECK, calling itself WABBA (World Amateur Body Building Association) goes more and more away from the big sport and plays no role for the development of official sport.
MOVING AHEAD
The WFF-WBBF International lives an important period of life. During the last few years many well known International sport persons representing various International and National sport and business structures are around the federation. They are addressing the WFF-WBBF with various projects and ideas. Sometimes those ideas seem to us unreal and fantastic, but the WFF-WBBF does not neglect them. We give them a try and then see what happens. Some projects do not work, but some do and it gives additional push for progress.
Once the WFF-WBBF worked on the project making the International Headquarters in Germany. For this the highest famous sky-scraper of Frankfurt International Business Center was chosen. A number of meetings and visits to the place were organized then.
Once we started a great International project with a famous Russia Company but inside misunderstandings between Russians made the project to last not long.
WFF-WBBF on various levels collaborates with International and National sport organizations taking them as partners. Sometimes we get into unbelievable situations. Some time ago the WFF-WBBF worked with an Italian structure, that presented itself in public as “international sport association”. The common work ended at once when we were signing the Contract for the common work. The WFF-WBBF presented official registration documents and sealed the Contract. Our Italian partner presented himself only (as a private person) and went to the nearest post office to seal the Contract with the post seal as his “international association” had no registration and no seal. By the way, during the last years this Italian “international organization” three times split and as a result we are facing the same unserious level illegal three more “international federations” which are fooling people around with their nice names and nice Internet webs. So You see what kind of “international sport organizations” are around us.
In 2009 the WFF-WBBF worked hard on a big International project in India. We did a lot to make the project living. But when the WFF-WBBF presented to the India partners a serious Contract with definite obligations for the both sides, the India partners had no courage and no power to sign it. Nevertheless the WFF-WBBF is still developing another International project in India now.
After the split of the IFBB in 2009 the part of it represented by more than 30 Asia and Arab Countries, that were supported by the OCA (Olympic Council of Asia), addressed the WFF-WBBF for collaboration. For this reason in May, 2009 the meeting of the President WFF-WBBF International EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS and the former President IFBB Asia Sheikh OSAMA AL SHAFAR (United Arab Emirates) and the former Vice President IFBB PAUL CHUA (Singapore) was planned in London (UK). Unfortunately the dates were the same of the WFF-WBBF Europe Championship in Klaipeda (Lithuania) and the WFF-WBBF President could not go to London. At the same time the Representatives of Asia could not get the EU visas so quickly to attend the WFF-WBBF Europe Championship in Lithuania and the meeting did not happen.
Not long ago the WFF-WBBF International was addressed by some well known International Sport and Business Persons. They presented a four year financial project for the International development of bodybuilding sport. The project could be prolonged for the next four years. Knowing the real situation in the International sport today it is no surprise that they addressed the WFF-WBBF and not another International Sport Organization. No doubt, if we agree, the project will require lots of work and efforts. But at the same time the WFF-WBBF has it’s own clear position especially on the legal law point of view of the project. The negotiations go on and we will see what comes out in result.
