SPORT STACKING RULES & REGULATIONS

• The World Sport Stacking Association serves as the governing body for sport stacking rules and regulations.
• The WSSA provides a uniform framework for sport stacking events.
• The WSSA sanctions sport stacking competitions and records worldwide.
• Our intent is to uphold the qualities of self-confidence, teamwork and good sportsmanship while providing a positive experience for all.
• At WSSA Sanctioned Tournaments, the officials and organizers are required to video record Finals competition for placement and record purposes. Only Finals competition will be video recorded. The WSSA does not accept, consider or review any third party video related or unrelated to our events and competitions. During our events, it is acceptable for spectators, parents and competitors to record videos for their own purposes but these videos will not be considered official and therefore cannot be used for judging or review purposes. We ask that spectators, parents and stackers refrain from asking judges or officials to review any third party video.

Sport stacking not only develops important physical skills, such as hand-eye coordination, quickness and focus; it also promotes selfconfidence, teamwork and good sportsmanship. Our intent is to uphold these qualities and provide a positive experience for all.

Please understand that most everyone involved in sport stacking competitive events is a volunteer working hard to do the best job they can do. Like any athletic competition, decisions and judgments will be made-–most will be correct, some may be questionable—all will be sincere. We ask that all those taking part in a competition, including Stackers, Relay Team Coordinators, Officials and Spectators, do their best to work together, be good sports and positive role models, and have a terrific time! The WSSA follows the principles and guidelines as outlined by the Positive Coaching Alliance.
