• The Federation of International Touch (FIT) is the ruling body for Touch - and operates just like any other international sporting body - with countries joining (affiliating) as members and by supporting and servicing their member's requirements and developing their sport internationally
• FIT and their affiliates (member nations) work together so as to establish the internationally recognised playing rules, refereeing standards and overall development - and all members abide by agreed guidelines and policies
• FIT has member nations all around the world with Asia emerging as the new frontier. Asian nations like Hong Kong , Japan , Singapore , Thailand , India and Malaysia join the FIT-Touch powerhouses of Australia , New Zealand , England and South Africa and others on the international Touch circuit
• Membership of FIT guarantees Asian nations (and enthusiasts) the opportunity to develop as a recognised international affiliate, benefiting from the association and links with all the other recognised international Touch playing nations around the world
• FIT membership ensures affiliated countries and their membership enthusiasts will continue to benefit from technical development and resource material; have the opportunity to compete in F.I.T sanctioned tournaments and events at all levels and to potentially host internationally recognised tournaments.

Affiliation is the conduit to all future development for Touch enthusiasts in Asia.
