Member organizations
The International Chovken Federation unites a growing global network of member organizations committed to preserving tradition while developing Chovken through professional support, certification, and international collaboration. Through a transparent and democratic process, every member contributes equally to shaping the sport’s future – built on trust, shared responsibility, and collective growth.
Global community of tradition & progress
Chovken is more than just a sport. It is a cultural symbol, a living tradition, and a growing international movement. The International Chovken Federation (ICF) is proud to unite a diverse and dedicated network of organisations from around the world who share our commitment to the game.
From established national bodies to emerging local clubs, every member plays a vital role in the global revival and development of Chovken.
What does membership offer?
Each ICF member organisation benefits from:
• Strategic support and professional guidance
• Access to ICF's official certification system for players, referees, and events
• Participation in international assemblies, working groups, and commissions
• Inclusion in global calendars, rankings, and development plans
• A shared identity built on heritage, professionalism, and mutual respect
Membership is not just a title – it is a partnership based on shared responsibility and a common vision for growth.
A transparent and democratic process
All membership applications are first reviewed by the ICF Executive Committee and then submitted for voting at the General Assembly – the Federation’s highest governing body.
Every vote carries equal weight, and new members are only accepted with full approval of the international Chovken community. This ensures transparency, accountability, and a democratic spirit that reflects the values of the sport itself.
Growing together
Today, ICF brings together 65 member organisations across multiple continents – and that number continues to grow.
Regardless of size or experience, each member contributes to a shared mission. Together, we are shaping a new future for Chovken – rooted in tradition, built on trust, and driven by a collective purpose.
