International Rope Skipping Organization
IRSO is the premier organization for rope skipping enthusiasts worldwide. They promote the sport, provide resources for athletes, coaches, and judges, host international competitions, and offer certifications for coaches and judges to ensure safety and fairness.
Partnership
International Rope Skipping Organization (IRSO) is currently in partnership with the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU). AAU and IRSO both are hosting the World Rope Skipping Championship together.
The AAU was founded in 1888 to establish standards and uniformity in amateur sports. During its earlier years, the AAU represented the U.S. in international sports federations and worked closely with the Olympic movement to prepare athletes for the Olympic Games. After the Amateur Sports Act of 1978, the AAU focused on providing sports programs for all ages beginning at the grass-root level. This value of “Sports for All Forever” is shared by nearly 850,000 participants and volunteers.
