From its establishment to 2000, it was named Association of International Winter Sports Federations (AIWF). It added "Olympic" in its title in 2000, to become AIOWF. It again renamed itself on 14 November 2023 to WOF. Its current president is Ivo Ferriani of the International Bobsleigh and Skeleton Federation and it is headquartered in Zurich, Switzerland.

The President and all the Members are elected for 4-year mandates. The Treasurer is nominated by the Council on the proposal of the President as an executive position. The Treasurer is also on the Council, but without voting rights.
