Fox, the general secretary of the International Federation of Muaythai Associations, secured a fresh four-year term unopposed at the virtual AIMS General Assembly.

He is set to lead the organisation, which aims to strengthen each of its member sports with a view towards getting them officially recognised by the International Olympic Committee (IOC), through to 2025.

The German official has served as AIMS President since 2015.

"The success of AIMS has been the unity and our shared visions and respecting each other," said Fox. 

"The strength of AIMS is in the solidarity and the principle of putting the athletes first. 

"AIMS will continue under my leadership to promote the Olympic values of inclusion, non-discrimination, equality and sport for all."

Ju-Jitsu International Federation President Panagiotis Theodoropoulos was re-elected as AIMS first vice-president during the virtual meeting, while World Minigolf Sport Federation head Gerhard Zimmermann was re-elected as secretary general.

International Aikido Federation chairman Kei Ikazawa has been given a fresh term as treasurer and Julie Gabriel, President of the International Savate Federation, was elected second vice-president.

There were also elections for the AIMS Council, with International Teqball Federation general secretary Marius Vizer Jr among the officials to secure a place on the organisation's ruling body.

International Federation of Sleddog Sports head Helen Lundberg, International Powerlifting Federation President Gaston Parage, World Darts Federation vice-president Sabine Shanahan and Mike Thomas, the President of the International Dragon Boat Federation, were also elected to the Council.

Fox highlighted the achievements of AIMS in the past four years, including receiving full recognition from the IOC in January 2020, during his report to the members.

AIMS' close cooperation with the IOC and the Global Association of International Sports Federations was also cited.
