ORGANISATION MEMBERSHIP

How an organisation joins the World Alpagut Federation

This page is for organisations — a national federation, an Alpagut section inside an existing federation, or an Alpagut academy. If you are joining as a person — athlete, coach, referee, official — use the individual registration instead.

The Federation admits one member organisation per country (Statutes Article 4.3).

The pathway for a national federation

STARTING POINT
National Representative
Status 3.2 · USD 100 / year
One person holds the country mandate and builds the sport there. The federation route begins from this point: a national federation is established by the National Representative and applies in its own name.
FIRST ADMISSION
Provisional Organisation Representative
Status 3.4 · USD 200 / year
The national federation is admitted conditionally and receives the Provisional Organisation Certificate (C2). It attends the General Assembly as an observer with the right to speak, but does not yet vote.
FULL MEMBERSHIP
Official Organisation
Status 3.5 · USD 250 / year
Full member of the Federation, holding the vote of its country in the General Assembly and the Official Organisation Certificate (C3). Reviewed every four years.

Advancement from Provisional to Official is not applied for here. It is decided by Compliance Audit: the application may be made after at least one year as a Provisional Organisation and no later than two years — three where an extension is granted. A federation that does not advance within that period loses its provisional status and waits six months before applying again.

What you can apply for

Status 3.4

Provisional Organisation Representative

USD 200 / year
Who it is for
A national Alpagut federation, established and registered in its own country.
What is needed
The country already has a National Representative, and the federation can produce its registration papers, statutes and governing body. WAF will send you Form C1 to complete.
Status 3.3

Affiliated Section Organisation

USD 150 / year in total
Who it is for
A country where national law does not permit an independent Alpagut federation to register. Alpagut is then run as a section inside an existing recognised sport federation.
What is needed
An existing National Representative, and a host federation willing to sign a tripartite agreement with WAF. The fee is USD 50 in addition to the USD 100 National Representative fee.
Korgan

Alpagut Academy

USD 50 / year
Who it is for
A school or club teaching Alpagut to WAF standards — a Korgan. Any number may exist in a country.
What is needed
A place to train, a qualified instructor, and this application. A Korgan is first chartered provisionally and is recognised once it is running.
