The International Federation of Tiddlywinks Associations promotes and oversees the conduct of World Tiddlywinks Championships™ and other competitions involving accredited tiddlywinks associations.
The membership of IFTwA consists of the head of each of the IFTwA-accredited tiddlywinks associations (currently, ETwA Chairman, Sarah Knight and NATwA Secretary-General, Larry Kahn) and the IFTwA Secretary-General elected by them. Rick Tucker of NATwA is the current IFTwA Secretary-General.
IFTwA was formed on 16 June 1963 by the English, Scottish, and Irish Tiddlywinks Associations, at the Tiddlywinks Congress held at the Cobden Hotel in Birmingham, England.
