Preamble
Proposal: To create a new part in section 2.8 of the Official Handbook that describes the format and qualification criteria for Continental nations cups (European Cup, Asian Cup, etc.)
Background:
As for Resolution 4, currently the Official Handbook outlines the points that will be awarded for Continental nations cups but contains no details as to how such cups shall be organised. This is currently left to each Confederation to specify.
To ensure consistency and clarity in competitions run under the FISTF banner and which attract FISTF World Ranking points, the Board believes that more detail needs to be including in the FISTF Handbook on this important subject.
If this is agreed in principle, the Board will draft additional text, to be included in the Official Handbook for the 2026-27 season, for MNAs’ consideration as part of the preparation of the Handbook
