1. I, the undersigned Athlete and IFBB PRO cardholder, agree to abide by the competition rules and the terms and
conditions of this Contract.
2. I agree that, under penalty of a fine, suspension or expulsion, I will not participate in a competition unless it is
sanctioned by the IFBB Pro League. Participation includes, but is not necessarily limited to, competing, judging,
officiating, promoting, or endorsing a competition that is not sanctioned by the IFBB Pro League. Participation does
not include guest posing, giving seminars or otherwise appearing (but not competing) at a competition that is
not sanctioned by the IFBB Pro League.
3. An athlete under a sponsor contract may also represent a sponsor at a display booth and/or present a seminar
on the sponsor’s product or service, regardless of whether or not the competition is sanctioned by the IFBB Pro
League. However, the athlete must notify the IFBB Pro League in writing prior to engaging in any such activities
and must not otherwise participate in the competition.
4. If I sign this Contract and fail to compete, whether the failure occurs before or during the competition, I
acknowledge, understand and accept that the Promoter may have incurred certain expenses on my behalf, such as
transportation and hotel. If required by the Promoter, I agree to reimburse all reasonable expenses for
transportation and hotel.
5. Between the signing of this Contract and the mandatory Athlete Meeting, the Athlete may withdraw by notifying
the Promoter or IFBB Pro League. Failing to provide notice to the Promoter or IFBB Pro League may result in the
athlete being fined and/or suspended.
6. If a competitor qualifies for the Finals but fails to compete in the Finals without a legitimate reason
(e.g. medical) and without notifying the Head Judge or Promoter before the Finals, that competitor may be fined
US $1,000. The fine will be paid to the IFBB Pro League in trust for the Promoter. Until the fine is paid in full, the
Athlete will be prohibited from competing.
7. This Contract must be signed by the Athlete and received by the IFBB Professional League no later than one
week before the date of the competition. After this, the Athlete may compete only with the approval of the
Promoter. If approval is granted, the Promoter may require that the Athlete pay a late entry fee of US $500.
9. This Athlete competition contract will not be valid without the athlete’s signature on the IFBB Pro League
release on page 2 of this contract.
