Collaboration between the AEMMA Federation in Spain 🇪🇸 and the World Kickboxing Network !
The AEMMA Federation informs of the existence of a working collaboration with the WKN.
This collaboration aims to establish a link between a national federative framework and an international recognition system, without exclusivity, monopoly, or territorial or institutional privilege.
Scope of the collaboration
The AEMMA / WKN collaboration notably includes:
• the possibility of complementary international recognition of grades, titles, and qualifications issued within the AEMMA framework;
• cooperation in matters of sporting and technical recognition at the international level;
• the validation and homologation, by the WKN, of certain bouts or events, in accordance with WKN’s own procedures;
• exchanges regarding sporting standards, officiating, and supervision.
Non-exclusivity
This collaboration is established on a strictly non-exclusive basis.
Accordingly:
• the WKN remains free to collaborate with other federations or organizations, including within Spain;
• the AEMMA Federation retains full freedom to enter into other national or international partnerships;
• no activity, recognition, or approval is conditional upon exclusivity between the parties.
Framework and freedom of choice
The AEMMA Federation acts as a Spanish national structure for its affiliated members, within a regulated and insured framework.
This framework:
• applies exclusively to AEMMA-affiliated members;
• does not constitute a general obligation nor an exclusive form of recognition within Spain;
• ensures full freedom of choice for clubs, instructors, and organizers in their collaborations.
International recognition through the WKN is independent and optional.
AEMMA & WKN
An open, transparent, and non-exclusive collaboration in support of the development of combat sports.
