    Awesome news for the next generation of freestylers from all around the world: one of the WFFA’s most important tournaments, the World Youth Freestyle Football Championship, is back in 2022!

    This year, the tournament grows and changes its platform, from the old WFFA App to a new, easier format based on Whatsapp (or an equivalent messaging tool for countries where this service is not available). In this edition of the competition, you won’t need to worry about technical issues and you’ll be able to focus completely on showing us your best Freestyle Football moves!

    Remember: to participate in the Youth Championship, you must be 15 years of age or younger on the date when registrations close. See below for more information!

    Registration

    Registrations for the 2022 WFFA Youth Championship are completely free and will be open between October 24th and November 7th. Important: no new signups will be accepted after November 7th, so make sure to register on time!

    To sign up, follow this process:

    1. Go to the GameDay page of the event and follow the registration process: once completed, you’ll receive an email with a link to the Parental Form
    2. Get the Parental Form signed by your mother, father or legal guardian and send it back to forms@thewffa.org before November 7th, 2022
    3. When your form is approved, you will receive a Whatsapp message and you will be able to send the qualification video
    4. The team of judges will select the best 128 videos (64 for boys and 64 for girls) and rank them to progress onto the next stage of the competition

    Do not forget that in order to participate you will need to be 15 years of age or younger when registrations close on November 7th, 2022.

    Competition structure

    This year, the WFFA Youth Championship will follow this timeline:

    1. October 24th to November 7th: Registration period. No registrations will be accepted after November 7th
    2. November 9th to November 16th: Qualification stage. Freestylers will be asked to send their qualification videos between those dates. No videos will be accepted after November 16th
    3. November 29th to December 5th: Top64 stage in Circles format, all happening via Whatsapp
    4. December 12th to December 15th: Top16 stage in 1×1 battles format, all happening via Whatsapp
    5. December 17th: Grand Finals (Top8, Semifinals, Bronze Battles, Finals) happening on a live event; participants will get all information beforehand so they can prepare accordingly

    Format

    In the qualification stage, the clips of the participants will be evaluated by three different judges, who will give them scores on a scale from 1 to 10. The marks from the three judges will be added up, and the participants will then be ranked according to their total score. In case of a score draw between two freestylers, the Head of Judging will intervene and use his quality vote to break the tie.

    The circles will then be created according to the aforementioned ranking from the qualification stage and following the usual seeding procedure: the freestyler ranked first will be placed in a group with the last, the second with the second last, and so on.

    In the circles, three judges will evaluate and score each of the three videos sent by the participants on a scale of 1 to 10. The best-ranked freestylers across all the circles will progress onto the next stage; the general ranking coming from these circles (that is, the total amount of points earned by each freestyler, accumulating the points earned by each of their three videos) will be used to determine the battles in the Top16. In case of a score draw between two freestylers, the results of the qualification stage will be used to break the tie.

    Rules

    The 2022 edition of the WFFA Youth Championship will use the Official Rules of Freestyle Football for its battles. Any specific rules and regulations affecting the competition will be published on the corresponding page of the WFFA website.

    Judges

    The team of judges for the 2022 WFFA Youth Championship will feature the following first-class freestylers from all around the world:

    Prizes

    The 2022 edition of the WFFA Youth Championship will reward not just the male and female champions of its 1×1 battles competition, but also offer awards to three extra categories in a similar fashion as in 2021.

    To buy your tickets for the World Final, visit the official page of the event at Entrio!
    Tournify Check the official website of the World Final on Tournify: click on the logo for more details!

    Red Bull Street Style, the most competitive Freestyle Football tournament in the world, returns in 2022 with the clear goal of taking things to the next level: a thousand athletes from over 50 countries will compete in a contest that will see a new sportive format being implemented this year, guaranteeing that finalists from up to five continents will enter the World Final for the first time in its history.

    This year’s competition will have a distinct format. In the men’s bracket, 2022 will see the return of in-person qualifiers, a series of events that will take place in specific countries to determine their champions; most nations of the world, though, will select their best athletes through online National Qualifiers on the WFFA App. The best athletes of each of the participating countries, including a specific Rest of the World qualifier for nations with smaller communities, will then advance to their respective Regional Qualifiers. Only the most skilful participants of each of the five regions (North and South America, Africa, Asia-Pacific, and Europe) will make it to the Regional Finals, a brand-new concept happening in late August that will determine the 16 men that will participate in the World Final on October 8th in Croatia.

    In the women’s bracket, the competition will happen on a fully online basis. Female participants from all around the world will need to get through their Regional Qualifiers to make it to the Regional Finals in August: the very best 8 female freestylers on the globe, coming from each of the five regions, will then earn a spot in the final event in Croatia.

    The Battle Pools of the Regional Qualifiers are available in this article; for more details on the tournament format, please check the announcement article. The official Rules of the championship are available on the Rules and Regulations page of our website, alongside all the particulars about the competitive structure.

    Below these lines, you can find a list of all male National Qualifiers, together with the respective links to their pages and to their National Champions, as well as the key details of the Women’s Regional Qualifiers.

    • Freestyle routine: a showcase of individual mastery in which an athlete demonstrates their quality in sync with the music
    • Double routine: a spectacle of synchrony in which two athletes show their most amazing combined moves
    • Sick Three: a competition to find the very best combination of 3 consecutive tricks
    • Challenge: a distinctive category in which athletes perform predetermined tricks at their highest speed; specially designed for lovers of fast combinations
