!! IFPA Election Results for Board of Directors + Online World Footbag Freestyle Championships
Hello Footbaggers,

We are having an exciting season this year, although the pandemic is not going away!

It's hard to even find words how cool the World Championships were this time! It'ss always a mind-blowing event, and this one was no different. Players didn't meet in real circles but entered the tournament by recording a video of their skills in 4 different events: Routines, Shred30, Sick3, and new format - Shred-Off. It was a blast! So many thanks to all those who worked so hard to make this possible, and many thanks to our esteemed competitors. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. And without further adieu, here is the final video from the final live stream:

(A new election with hopefully several candidates for each position will be set up, and we currently plan to end voting by July 31st. The election results shall be published on August 1st, during IFPA Online World Footbag Freestyle Championships Finals (www.footbag.online).
