Constructively and Amicably

In an effort to constructively and amicably put an end to the disagreement between the International Cheer Union (ICU) and the World DanceSport Federation as well as the International Federation of Cheerleading (WDSF/IFC) regarding Cheer and CheerDance, the WDSF Presidium voted unanimously to approve the wording of an initial agreement to settle existing differences.

During their meeting held on 20 and 21 January in Bucharest, ROU, the 16 members of the WDSF Presidium adopted a text which the Legal Commission had authored to outline the procedure to arrive at a Coexistence Agreement between ICU and WDSF/IFC. WDSF President Lukas Hinder and WDSF Presidium Member/IFC President Nakamura affixed their signatures to the document which will now be forwarded to the other parties, the ICU and the Global Association of International Sports Federations.
