Movement Standards
Any movement listed and described in the Movement Standards document is eligible for inclusion in iF3 sanctioned events in the 2023 competition season.
The Movement Standards exist to allow athletes, coaches, and officials to understand:
- what movements are eligible for inclusion in competition
- how those movements will be judged
- how to train during the season to ensure athletes will meet the required standards on competition day.
When competition tests are announced the iF3 may issue special regulations to elaborate on test flow or special circumstances unique to that particular competition which are not covered by the movement standards.
The Movement Standards document is available for download all season long on the iF3 website. Athletes, coaches, and officials are expected to have read and have thorough knowledge of the movement standards before entering an iF3 competition.
