Skate : Une offensive nationale pour conquérir le pays

Ivorian skateboarding is shifting into high gear. Following the Ordinary General Assembly on January 10, 2026, a wave of optimism is sweeping through action sports in Côte d'Ivoire. President Julien Konan and his team unveiled an ambitious roadmap for the 2026 season, focusing on community engagement and the identification of new talent. A calendar that balances promotion and high performance

The federation's schedule leaves no respite for enthusiasts. In addition to institutional events, Ivory Coast will compete on the continental and world stages:

  1. African Championship: From April 17 to 21.
  2. World Skateboarding Championships: From September 15th to 27th.

The "Tour of Ivory Coast" of Skateboarding

The major new development lies in a vast recruitment campaign across the regions. It will kick off on March 17th in Sinfra , with an urban parade and talent identification sessions in schools.

President Julien Konan intends to extend the practice beyond Abidjan by visiting successively:

Korhogo, Bouaflé, Daoukro, Bouaké, Dabou, Bouna, Odienné and Abengourou.

Key dates to remember

For clubs and registered players, the competition season is already mapped out:

  1. May 16: Interclub tournament (U15 category).
  2. May 25: Opening of the National Championship in Abengourou .

Alongside the competitions, the executive committee is focusing on the professionalization of the discipline through several training sessions aimed at all stakeholders in the field (referees, coaches, supervisors).
