The ACA is a member of the International Casting Sport Federation (ICSF, see www.castingsport.com ) representing the United States in this international casting organization.
The ICSF organizes World Championships every two (even) years. European Championships, All-A Championships (Asia, Australia, Africa, and America, i.e. everyone but Europe), Junior and Senior (50+, 60+) World Championships are held in odd years. Here are the last two Championships results:
2006 ICSF World Championships
2004 ICSF World Championships.
