IWGA President Mr José Perurena Congratulates IFMA General Secretary Stephan Fox

The International Federation of Muaythai Amateur (IFMA) General Secretary, Stephan Fox, has been elected as the new president of the Alliance of Independent Members of SportAccord (AIMS). IWGA President José Perurena took the liberty to congratulate the General Secretary of IFMA. Muaythai is a very active and proud member of the IWGA.

Mr Fox ensured a close cooperation between AIMS and the IWGA as many members of AIMS are already recognized or included in the official sports program of The World Games, and other members are already working towards recognition by the IWGA.

The International World Games Association (IWGA) is a non-profit-making international sports organisation recognised and supported by the International Olympic Committee. The IWGA comprises 39 International Member Sports Federations. It administers and promotes The World Games (TWG), a multi-sport event held every four years that features popular, traditional, emerging and trend sports on its programme. The World Games 2025 took place in Chengdu (CHN) from 7-17 August 2025. 4,000 athletes from more than 110 countries took part in this 12th edition. The World Games 2029 will take place in Karlsruhe, Germany, from 19-29 July 2029, 40 years after it hosted TWG in 1989.
