IWF has more than 1500 members. These include athletes of all ages, coaches, officials, parents, and fans striving together to strengthen the sport.
IWF is responsible for the selection and training of teams to represent Israel in international competitions, including World and Olympic competitions. An equal part of the IWF mission is focused on development of the sport’s grassroots. This is facilitated through sanctioning of age-group tournaments and the chartering of member clubs through established local associations.
IWF also conducts regional and national championships for all age categories, developmental camps, clinics, and coaches education programs. Regional and local competition is the major focus of annual programming in each of our region's clubs. Volunteers, coaches, officials, and parents are the lifeblood of our organization. These leaders set up tournaments, run clubs, organize trips, and coach athletes in their local area.
