The World Association of Kickboxing Organisations (WAKO) has described the inclusion of the sport on the preliminary programme for the 2023 European Games as a great result .
The next edition of the European Games is scheduled to take place in the Krakow and Małopolska region in Poland in 2023.
Kickboxing did not appear on the preliminary programme published by the European Olympic Committees (EOC) in September.
It was included in an update by the Polish Olympic Committee at the EOC General Assembly last month, however.
At the time, it was unclear whether kickboxing would feature on the Games programme or as an demonstration event.
