CORSIER-SUR-VEVEY, Switzerland (July 11) — United World Wrestling President Nenad LALOVIC has been elected as the Vice-President of Association of Summer Olympic International Federations (ASOIF).

Lalovic, a member of the International Olympic Committee [IOC] since 2015, has been a member of Summer Olympic International Federation (IF) representative to the IOC Executive Board in 2022. He is also a member of the World Anti-Doping Agency Executive Committee.

“I am honored to be elected by my peers to the position of Vice President of ASOIF,” Lalovic said. “I take great pride in representing the Summer International Federations and in contributing to their future well-being. In an ever-evolving sporting landscape, it is essential that we strike the right balance between honoring tradition and embracing innovation.

Earlier in June, Lalovic was re-elected as Council member of ASOIF at its 49th General Assembly convened on June 11 in Lausanne, Switzerland.

“We had a very constructive meeting and I look forward to working closely with my Council colleagues to represent the interests of our member federations and help strengthen the Olympic Movement and sports at large. I’d also like to warmly congratulate Nenad Lalovic on his election as ASOIF Vice President, following his re-election as Council member during our recent General Assembly,” ASOIF President Ingmar DE VOS said.
