Names of three International Sports Federations updated in the Olympic Charter

30 January 2025 – The 143rd Session of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) today approved three amendments to the Olympic Charter, reflecting the updated names of three International Sports Federations (IFs). The decision by the IOC Session was based on the proposal from the IOC Executive Board in December 2024, which followed a recommendation by the IOC Legal Affairs Commission.

The amendments will feature in the list of recognised International Federations (Bye-law to Rule 45.1.4.1) as follows:

  • Changing the name of the World Curling Federation (WCF) to World Curling, including dropping the acronym.
  • Changing the French name of the International Luge Federation (FIL) to Fédération Internationale de Luge (instead of Fédération Internationale de Luge de Course). The English name and the acronym remain unchanged.
  • Changing the name of the International Ski Federation to International Ski and Snowboard Federation. The acronym (FIS) remains unchanged.

The exact wording of the changes can be found here.
