WFTDA Accepts 16 Apprentice Members

The WFTDA has extended Apprentice membership to 16 additional leagues worldwide.

The WFTDA Apprentice Program is designed to serve as a steppingstone to full WFTDA membership, to ensure that leagues are well prepared for the transition to a WFTDA Member League. This group of leagues continues the association's international growth, with the first apprentice member in Brazil, as well as additional leagues in Australia, Europe, and North America.

Congratulations to all of the new Apprentice leagues!
