Since 1978
UWW-Europe
At the General Assembly in Oulu, Finland in 1978, UWW-Europe (European Council of UWW) was created as a support organ of United World Wrestling.
According to Chapter VI (Chapter I, Art. 18 and 19) of UWW Constitution the national wrestling federations of each continent are united in Continental Council. The role and competence of the Continental Councils are set by UWW Congress. The Councils are UWW’s basic support organs, called upon to promote wrestling in the respective Continent, to guarantee the observance of the Statutes and Rules of the International Federation and to fulfill the directives of its leading administrative bodies (Congress, Bureau, President and General Secretary).
As a support organ of FILA, CELA was created at the General Assembly in Oulu, Finland in 1978. Its first president was Hermann Schwindling who kept that position until his death in 1995. In 2015, CELA changed its name into “United World Wrestling-Europe” (the “UWW-Eu”).
48 European national federations are members of UWW-Eu.
The General Assembly, held the first year after the Olympic Games, elects its President and members of the executive committee of UWW-Eu.
UWW-Eu is governed by an Executive Committee (consisting of 7 persons).
