    The World Freestyle Football Association is pleased to announce the incorporation of two new countries into its Global Network, now spanning 119 countries: Nepal, in the Asia-Pacific region, and Chad, in the African region, have become its latest members!

    Following the best traditions of the WFFA, two respected local freestylers have been named new Country Leaders of both nations, namely Abderamane ‘Akafe’ Annour in the case of Chad and Anish Shrestha in the case of Nepal. Their talent and expertise will now help guide their respective local communities, supporting their growth and development.

    Pekko ‘PeGe’ Piirto, Head of the Global Network, said: “We are thrilled to incorporate two fantastic national communities into the most precious structure of the WFFA – the Global Network. We know both Anish and Akafe will do a magnificent job, and we’re really excited to start working with them to support their local freestylers!”.

    Anish Shrestha, the new Country Leader in Nepal, added: “I am honoured to take on such a responsibility. I have been helping the local community for several years now, and I feel working with the WFFA will greatly boost our organisational capabilities. I can’t wait to start!”.

    Abderamane ‘Akafe’ Annour, the newly named Country Leader in Chad, declared: “It is an honour and a great privilege for me to assume this duty. I have been working for years to build a Freestyle Football community in my country; now, thanks to the official inclusion into the WFFA, we will get not just organisational notoriety to develop the sport, but also a great echo throughout my country to create fair and competitive tournaments”.

    The task to build and consolidate the Global Network doesn’t end here, with many countries working on expanding and upscaling their current local structure. The Freestyle Football community can expect more exciting updates very soon!

    The Finals of the African Freestyle Football Championship move location to increase in size: enter WFFA Pulse Algiers

    The World Freestyle Football Association, together with prestigious Nigerian agency and event co-organisers Feet’n’Tricks, announced today that the live Finals of the official African Freestyle Football Championship would have a new, exciting location: instead of Lagos, Nigeria, the live event will take place in the city of Algiers, Algeria. This exciting event will also happen at a later date in the year, moving from July 13 to October 18.

    The revamped WFFA Pulse Algiers 2024 will grow and offer more slots for female athletes, doubling the slots in the Finals from 4 to 8. The current 16 slots for male freestylers will be maintained, and just as announced at the beginning of the season, all 24 finalists will be flown from their respective countries to Algeria with all transport and accommodation costs covered. The online qualifier will happen just as planned and kick off on May 20th.

    On top of the extended Finals, the first-place winners in both the men’s and women’s categories will receive a cash prize of $5,000 USD each, as well as an all-expenses-paid ticket for the World Freestyle Football Championship later in the year. There will also be special awards for the 2nd and 3rd places.

    The global competitive circuit of the WFFA travels to Africa for yet another thrilling Freestyle Football competition: Pulse Algiers, the African qualifier for the Finals of the World Freestyle Football Championship, is around the corner!

    This new instalment of the Pulse Series will feature an online qualifier and a live online Final:

    • The Online Qualifier will run between May 20th and June 21st and will help select the 24 best freestylers in Africa (16 men and 8 women)
    • The Final will be held online on October 24th on the official channels of the WFFA

    This Pulse Event will host a 1×1 battles competition open to all freestylers from the African region. To ensure that their country is eligible for this competition, freestylers can check the official Regional Division of the WFFA.

    The registration process for this event will open on March 26h and close on May 15th; there will be no extensions, so all athletes who haven’t signed up by the end of the registration period will not be allowed to compete.

    Once the registration process is complete, all athletes will be contacted individually via WhatsApp with instructions on how to participate.

    We expect all participants to sign up using the GameDay widget, the link to which is available above; however, if a freestyler finds issues in the payment process or doesn’t have the ability to pay via credit card or PayPal, we kindly ask them to send us an email at pulse-series@thewffa.org and we’ll find an alternative solution for them.

    All athletes are reminded that it is not possible to participate in two Pulse Events in the same year; however, if a freestyler signs up for a qualifier and gets injured before having been able to compete in it, they will be allowed to move their registration to Pulse Online later in the year.

    Athletes under the age of 18 will be allowed to participate, but they will need to upload a signed Parental Form at the end of the registration process. For more details, check the links below!
