Official Rules
WFC constantly strives to create a level and fair playing field for all competitors. Each year, contest rules are thoroughly reviewed by WFC staff and the WFC Ambassador team. Sometimes rules are added. Sometimes rules are abolished. Sometimes rules just need a little more clarification. But, never are rules taken lightly. WFC Cheferees make sure of that!
As you study these rules, should you have a question or need more clarification, please feel free to send us a message through our official facebook champ chat page or email us at champchat@worldfoodchampionships.com.
WFC 2025 INFRACTIONS
WFC has implemented a Points Deduction process, administered by Cheferees and WFC Officials, to address any possible infractions to the rules herein. The severity of the infraction will determine the number of points deducted or if a team disqualification is necessary. All necessary and authorized deductions will be subtracted from a team’s overall score from the round of competition in which the infraction occurred. For example, an infraction penalty during the Opening Round will result in a score deduction from that round, but will not affect the Final Round score (unless the infraction is repeated in the Final Round).
