Buy from the WSF Online Store

You can buy T-shirts, tote bags, mugs, and other items with the World Skating Federation logo from the WSF Online Store. Our store features secure online ordering in partnership with CafePress.com, which handles the printing and shipping of the merchandise.

The WSF's profits from merchandise sales are used to fund the efforts to establish our organization. Just as importantly, our logo merchandise helps to advertise the WSF and provides a way for skating fans and other concerned individuals to demonstrate their support for the WSF and its principles and goals.

Lobby the ISU, IOC, and Your National Olympic and Skating Federations

You can support the World Skating Federation by urging national and international figure skating and Olympic organizations to recognize us as the governing body for international figure skating competitions.

Please note that while many federations provide a contact e-mail address, a hardcopy letter sent by post and addressed to a specific person within the organization is almost always more effective. (General e-mail sent to large organizations is typically read and answered by an administrative worker rather than anyone in authority.)

Contact information for various national and international skating federations is available on our Federations page.
Contact information for national Olympic committees is available from the IOC web site.
The Professional Skaters Association is an organization that primarily represents the interests of skating coaches.

Tell TV Networks and Sponsors What You Think

Television contracts are the primary source of revenue for the ISU, IOC, and national skating federations. You can help the World Skating Federation by telling broadcasters and advertisers that you support our efforts to become the recognized international governing body for figure skating.

Contact information for all Olympic broadcasters is available in this PDF document from the IOC web site.
