Press release 24.04.2015

It is a great recognition for World Armwrestling Federation (WAF) at the SportAccord Convention, Sochi – Russia, 19-24 April 2015.

For the first time in the history of armwrestling WAF was represented, presented and recognized by SportAccord General Assembly in front of the President of International Olympic Committee Thomas Bach, in front of the President of Russian Federation Vladimir Putin, in front of the President of FIFA Sepp Blatter and in front of 109 International Federations, members of SportAccord.
Due to our application situation, SportAccord Council proposed to add a point in the constitution in order for WAF to receive the Provisional Member status.

WAF applied for full membership at SportAccord with 52 members from which only 28 where considered eligible, recognized members by National Sport Authorities. According to the current rules we needed 40. This statute would had given us the possibility to obtain the other requested national recognitions easier with the SportAccord Membership (Provisional).

By 2% of the votes, the proposal of the SportAccord Council haven’t obtained the 2/3 majority needed to made statuary changes.

At the moment WAF have the Observer status in SportAccord General Assembly and our application is open. We keep on working to collect the missing 12 National Recognitions.

WAF attended many important meetings with major sport organizations, international sport federations (members of SportAccord), national governmental sport authorities, national Olympic committees, media partners and other guests.

One of the most important was the meeting with the organizer of the World Combat Games, Mrs. Lisa Allan with who we started the discussions to include armwrestling into the program of 2018 World Combat Games in Lima-Peru. We have big chance to successfully pass all the requirements.

Another big achievement was the meeting with the President of International University Sports Federation (FISU), Mr. Claude-Louis GALLIEN. We received information and advice on how to apply and achieve FISU membership and we started the preliminary discussions to organize the 2017 World Armwrestling Students Championship under the umbrella and patronage of FISU.

WAF President and WAF General Secretary had an official meeting with SportAccord President Mr. Marius Vizer. We discussed the solutions to the current situation and he assured us of his full support.

WAF had an exhibition space together with Malaysia Tourism Agency.

WAF represented our sport, the stand where we set up a table was highly appreciated by our meeting guests, organizers, delegates, management of major international federations, media, authorities and visitors.

President of SportAccord Mr. Marius Vizer itself stopped to our armwrestling table and had a more casual meeting with WAF President and General Secretary.

For the first time all those major sport organizations met World Armwrestling Federation, acknowledge about our sport and for sure will support us for next General Assembly. They all enjoyed our sport. We received many encouragements to go further and recognize this sport at the highest international level.

John Brzenk: The UAL and I have worked out an agreement that is a win/win for both parties

John Brzenk – facebook: ” I agreed to delete my last thread.
The UAL and I have worked out an agreement that is a win/win for both parties.
Thank you all for the support ! “
John Brzenk: ” I sincerely wish them well “
John Brzenk – facebook: ” I would like to publicly announce that I am not a UAL contracted athlete … My contract expired August 31 2014 and although there was a renewal clause I did not receive this notice until outside of the original contract year.
It would seem this point needs to be argued in court per UAL. “
Cameron Clarke: ” So John does this mean you will be qualifying for the WAL in May….. “
John Brzenk: ” And because of this fact … He claims he is taking legal action because it’s causing him damage …. Guess I’m going to court ! “

UPDATE:

Eric Wolfe: ” After a suit is filed just set up a donations website. . Watch it fill up quickly… This is going to be interesting. . Its like a chess move gone wrong.. will Drenk just let John walk?.. leading the way for so many others to do the same.. or will he be driven by Pride and put up a legal fight that will untimely lead to the demise of UAL. It seams like both choices are not favorable to UAL.. Ok there is a 3rd choice. . Rip up all those fucken bullshit contracts. . Be proactive in letting everyone pull where they want.. and still put on great tournaments.. UAL can still have ultimate match ups between the worlds greatest pullers.. This 3rd option is so clear and its a win win for everyone. . Will Drenk make the right choice? “
John Brzenk: ” Eric, he has publicly and privately changed the rules of contract allowing people to pull when he says it’s ok that it’s hard to know what’s going on.
There were two other proposals from him yesterday. The first was to have WAL and ESPN pay him to release me and then the second option was to have me pay back all money I ever earned from UAL since 2010 …
I don’t think so ! “
