Application to Join the World Beard and Moustache Association 
The WBMA was formed to provide information about the facial hair movement and encourage others to organize and join together. Large and small, some of the clubs are well known among international competitors, and some are not, but we are all here to work together and build a community celebrating.

The following is a two-part form that can help you describe your club and its members to our Board of Directors as we evaluate your application: 1) the Club Definition Checklist, and 2) your Club Statement.

Some of the questions may not apply to your club as it has been designed to work with the laws and customs of different countries. Please feel free to add any other information that you feel would help everyone better understand the club that you represent. We hope this will help all of us better understand you and your club.
