1/22/2025 Dear associations.

The former board decided that from 2025 only those players who played a WFGA tournament in 2023 or 2024, i.e. who have points in the world rankings, can take part in the world championships. This was also announced by the board at the time on February 3, 2024. So there was a full season to play somewhere.

The new board decided on January 17, 2025 that nations that have an association will receive Wilcards for players who are not qualified. The decision will be made by the national associations, which will then report the names to the WFGA board. These players also have to register themselves.

The deadline for associations to register is February 28, 2025. The associations do not have to use all wildcards, but they can. Please contact your national associations to find out more about the procedure.

We calculated the number of wildcards for 2025 based on the number of players in the world rankings. We divided the votes at the 2024 General Meeting by two and rounded them up.

The result:
  • Germany 10
  • Czech Republic 7
  • Denmark 6
  • Hungary 3
  • France 2
  • Slovakia 1
  • Switzerland 1
  • Latvia 1
  • plus 5 for the host country, which will be the Czech Republic in 2025.

Countries without associations cannot receive wildcards.

Best regards,
President Christian Havelt for the WFGA board.
