Additional information
WSWCF certificate is granted to a gym or workout park, based on the equivalence between the information sent in by the owner of the street workout and calisthenics gym or park and the required information (standards), and based on a special attestation, in which the owner verifies that all the requirements have been met. WSWCF retains the right to send an expert to inspect the gym or workout park, in case of any complaints from the clients regarding lack of compliance of the gym or workout park with the standards or the implementation of unauthorized alterations. In this case, the owner will be asked to deliver improvements. If the owner will not comply, the certificate will be revoked. For us it is very important that the wish to maintain the WSWCF quality brand is mutual.

It is illegal to refer to your gym or workout park as conforming to the WSWCF standards without an actual certificate. A gym or workout park can only be deemed in conformity to the standards if it has received the certificate.
