The Sports Committee has chosen a 60:40 ratio in favour of the World Championship performance because, while the World Rankings are a key tool for the future of the sport, they are still in their early years and may not fully capture the competitive landscape yet. By placing more weight on proven performance in past championships, the Committee aims to ensure that the allocation reflects both current strength and historical excellence.
Besides that, and in order to help in the development of the sport all around the world, the Sports Committee has implemented a cap of 1/3 of the total competitors in each of the regions, that is, 5 slots per continent. This ensures a diverse and global competition, giving fans from all over the planet a chance to see their region represented on the biggest stage.
Lastly, the WFFA Sports Committee, together with the Board, has decided to allocate all available slots to physical events, meaning Pulse Online will be discontinued in 2025. This decision was carefully considered after reviewing the tournament’s last two editions and is based on two main reasons: first, to reward freestylers who make the effort to attend physical events; and second, the realisation that, although Pulse Online was created mainly for freestylers from smaller countries, it was not fulfilling its purpose, as all the winners came from nations with large and competitive freestyle communities.
Therefore, the spots for the 2025 edition of the World Freestyle Football Championship, both for men and for women, are allocated as follows:
