General Information
Introducing The Fightwear Store UK Open 2024! Hosted by award-winning martial arts brand Fightwear Store UK and Points Fighter.
The main aim of this event is to provide a friendly and encouraging environment that allows novice fighters to gain experience and confidence, whilst also providing advanced fighters with an exciting, high-level tournament.
As well as Novice/Advanced Point Fighting categories, we have Light Continuous divisions, Point Fighting Grand Champion categories for 12-16 year olds and 17 years+ and also, our unique Just Blitz categories, where fighters are only allowed to use their hands!
The Just Blitz categories are a fun, fast-paced variation to Point Fighting and we think that the results may be very interesting!
Weigh-in will start at 8:00am. Fighting will start at 9:30am.
All athletes enter at their own risk and Parents/Guardians/Coaches enter their children into a contact sport knowing there is a risk of injury involved.
X2 Coach passes will be available per team. Larger teams will be granted more.
Spectator tickets will be available at £10 when bought online (via Kihapp) up until midnight on Wednesday, May 29th. The spectator fee on the door will be £15. Please note that there will be no card payments taken on the day.
